Heresy! Anything after the 18th century is trash. Trash I tell you!

(Well, except maybe Brahms on occasion. And maybe Mozart, but I wouldn't think of his music as Christian. And there's Cesar Frank, but he was a Romanist. . . .Olivier Messiaen is 20th century so he's sort of contemporary. He was a Romanist and weird to boot, but I like some of that stuff too. . .wait, Duruflé is modern and he has some good stuff. Agh! There are contemporary composers I like!)

I know absolutely nothing about CCM except I once read about Amy Grant on a fundamentalist website. That's how I keep up with culture.
