John Adams -- On the Transmigration of Souls (Nonesuch) 2004
Too early to tell, but this piece could become the definitive work to come out of 9/11. It's certainly the definitive work by a minimalist classical composer. Incredibly moving, and notable for the way that the spoken words (mostly names and descriptions) shift between literal, rhythmic, and ambient uses.
