Besides John Adams, Philip Glass and Steve Reich are still putting out stuff.
I also dug this from Rachel Grimes recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBGXinia7PY&list=PLna3_ZMkaPXEnqx1yzMov0SgaMRHY_VT8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBGXinia7PY&list=PLna3_ZMkaP...
Orchestral music is a tough racket because it costs $50,000 to get an orchestra out of bed, and then you're competing against 200 years of great stuff that's in the public domain. I do think that soundtracks are where it's at for orchestral music. Music that's not simple pop had a shift from churches and courts to concert halls in the 1800s because that's where the money was, and now most people experience it in film or videogames for the same reason. Williams, Zimmer, Shore, and Elfman have all done great stuff.
