I consider things like Nobuo Eumatsu to be Modern Classical. Very much based on older ideas and themes but with an ear for detail and the modern conventions of flouting the rules. One of the main reasons I much prefer his works to a lot of German Tradition works is because he's not afraid to do whatever he wants within the boundaries of the piece.
