Poll: How old is the youngest composer you regularly listen to?

[Haffner]

I believe the youngest is Dr. Karl Henning. Second is probably Alfred Schnittke.

[not edward]

But AFAIK, Scriabin was gay. Until today I never knew he had a son.

He had a wife (whom he left for one of many, many mistresses). Maybe he was bisexual, but I'd not heard that.

Karl Henning (I think he's pushing 30).

Thanks for the recommendations - I will get on it as soon as my exams are done'd.

The problem with listening *regularly* to young composers today is that there aren't very many works recorded!

I do listen to Thomas Adès (1971-) somewhat often, but I really want to mention the several composers who are not that well recorded (or not at all), but the few works of each that I do have, I listen to all the time! They are:   
Bettina Skrzypczak (1962-), Ingmars Zemzaris (1973-), and Heather Schmidt (1975-).

Ahh, you beat me to it.

I saw a guest was viewing the thread and thought "hey that topic sounds interesting"

[some guy]

Regularly listen to would be Simon Steen-Andersen (b. 1976).

But I regularly listen to music. And a lot of what I regularly listen to is by people who were born in the eighties. Just no one of them that I listen to regularly.

[CaughtintheGaze]

Probably Liza Lim, who was born in 1966.

judging arbitrarily by number of plays on last.fm and live concerts attended, Aaron Cassidy (b. ... 1981? i'm not sure)

in my top 100 plays on itunes there is music by Andys Skordis, Clara Ianotta, Esaias Järnegard, Jacob Gotlib and Andrew Greenwald, all of whom i'm pretty sure are younger, but i wouldn't say i listen to them all the time.

[Daverz]

I'm rather conservative.  The youngest I listen to regularly are probably Kalevi Aho (1949) and John Adams (1947). 

Looking through this list:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_20th-century_classical_composers_by_birth_date

the youngest that I can recall listening to ever was Jennifer Higdon (1962; her Violin Concerto).

The next after that is Michael Torke (1961), but still not a composer I regularly listen to.

Now Erkki-Sven Tüür (1959) I've listened to more than a few times, and I've sought out his music.  Then Magnus Lindberg (1958).  And Tan Dun (1957), because Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one of my favorite films.  Paul Moravec (1957): some enjoyable CDs on Naxos. 

Most of the composers that I tend to think of as "contemporary" were born in the 1930s.
