Hauschka (whose real name is Volker Bertelmann) is a German composer who makes minimalist instrumental music, chiefly using a piano. he employs some other instrumentation as well - traditional choices such as strings and horns, as well as some surprising and interesting choices that sound like vibrating drinking glasses, rattling spoons, tapping sticks, distorted electronic blips, and some other adorably weird shit that I can't identify.
Hauschka's music reminds me of Yann Tiersen - they sound similar and they both have the same ability to convey emotion through remarkably simple and beautiful music. however, Hauschka is way less smarmy, and doesn't use cheesy accordions (which is a good or a bad thing, depending on your opinion of accordions).
