I love Modern Classical to bits. I really like the idea of classical

I'm not sure what you're asking
Of course there is modern jazz, but it won't have more ambience if that's what you're trying to find

Well, it's not exactly the same. It varies a lot. Like Modern Classical, Modern Jazz goes many different ways.

From the way you're talking about, check out the records LAM and Atmopheres (I know Tigran Hamasyan is one of the members for this one forgot the others) from last year. This kind of stuff is minimalist and atmospheric.

Then there's the extremely dense works of guys like Wadada Leo Smith and Henry Threadgill who do for jazz similar to what Brian Ferneyhough does for classical. Wouldn't recommend these at all for beginners.

Jazz unlike classical envelops popular music as well, so you also got the more ambient instrumental hip hop of guys like J Dilla or Nujabes, the nu jazz of Jaga Jazzist, and whatever it is the erratic chill/crazy balance of sounds that is Flying Lotus.

For experimental stuff, there's free improvisation which entails everything from Ground Zero's turntable/electronic theatrics to Free Jazz/noise collars of Keiji Haino and Peter Brotzmann. The experimental electronic side of modern classical merged long ago with jazz's improv to create Electroacoustic improvisation; a good starting point for it is the album Good Morning Good Night.

In A Silent Way is a good one

modern classical is a super loose term, and even though people use it as a catch all it covers a ton of different periods. what you're probably looking for is that ambient minimalist stuff like basinski, adams, glass and nyman.

in terms of jazz, the term "modern jazz" isn't really an equivalent to modern classical. ambient jazz can be traced back to cool jazz, stuff like grant green, bill evans, chet baker and 50s miles davis (his electric period is also very ambient-influenced but not in the way that his cool jazz material was). there's also the ecm label with artists like pat metheny, keith jarrett, and ralph towner. some of the guys from this label, specifically methney, also went on to do smooth jazz, but this board hates that genre so i wouldn't bother

Adams is not really a minimalist though.

Bohren & Der Club of Gore - Sunset Mission

This is like the A Winged Victory for the Sullen/Erased Tapes of jazz for me..

This isn't classical, its just ambient music with some instruments associated with classical music
Do you think lindsey stirling is classical too?
