Morricone
I'm sure there are a few music purists who find him vulgar, but I'm a huge admirer of Morricone's work and love the way he crosses so many musical genres, from baroque to rock, jazz and avant-garde. he's written some of the most beautiful melodies of the last century, among them the two posted by Hector. (Incidentally, if there's anyone on this list unfamiliar with his work, the extraordinary recording he did with Yo-Yo Ma a few years ago is an excellent introduction...)
