I'm surprised that not a lot has been talked about Minimalism in this thread, I find it takes much structure from the 19th century type of classical, but in turn makes it's really modern. For anyone interested taking a dive into 20th century classical I would say try listening to compositions from Minimalist composers instead of Stockhausen,Cage and or Varese.

Personally, the only classical music that I pour large amount of time into is the mid 20th century classical music from the New York School (Cage, Wolff, Feldman, Brown) and the European avant-garde (Stockhausen, Xenakis, Boulez). But I have to pose a question, is what Earle Brown called "Open form" just Free Improvisation with a vague guide of playing? I ask this because I have a 3-LP box set called "Free Improvisation" with players of the sort like Derek Bailey on it and I really can't tell the difference between a group doing a Free Improvisation set compared to a Earle Brown open form piece that's made up from graphic notion.
