Stevie Wonder is a musical genius. Sure he spent most of his years composing pop music, but as far as pop music goes, he was GOOD. Don't forget he's also an amazing pianist. No doubt that this kind of talent applied to classical composition would have great results.
Some of my favorite composers of the last half century are Eric Satie (french, mostly a pianist), the Kronos Quartet (soundtrack to Requiem For a Dream and The Fountain), and Max Richter (sounds like music for a diamond ring commercial, except it's actually good).
