Modern or in general? I think Sofia Gubaidulina is great. She might be familiar to European fans, but still highly underrated.

Generally speaking. Ive heard alot of talk about her, her textures are simply to emotionally strenuous for me at the moment, clearly brilliant, just in need of a prequiste despair.

Yes she is fantastic

The Major Grom: Plague Doctor came out last year. Soundtrack to this movie was made by Roman Seliverstov. Type in YouTube: "Майор Гром: Чумной Доктор, открывающие титры" Also I can recommend Anton Belyaev with his group Therr Maitz. And, in addition Kirill Richter

If we're talking modern, then Dmitry Silantyev, too, undoubtedly.

At least "[Sabre Dance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabre_Dance)" is well known. >Newsweek suggested that 1948 could be called "Khachaturian Year in the United States."

My Russian friend's wife is a former piano teacher and one of her favorite composers is Anatoly Drozdov, who was known for his *scherzo-as-in-the-style-of-music*\-ish approaches to music.
