I believe that I addressed this by offering a number of modern composers
in my previous posting addressing this subject (i.e. Steve Reich,
Meredith Monk, etc. & let me add Arvo Part to the list while I'm at it).
My point about symphony orchestras playing music by "rock" bands, which
apparently wasn't clear, was that the style must have been influenced by
classical music or training, otherwise it wouldn't work in both venues.
