Probably one of the greatest (or at least best known) modern classical composers is John Williams.
He's best known for the score in George Lukas' Star Wars movies but the man has done far more than just those.
He's a musical genius in his own right and is well deserving of the title.
Here's a collage of music that is a sampling of his best works from the 2007 CBS special "Movies Rock."

The man is just incredible IMHO. :)
