I see that you’ve glommed some of my favorites together. 
Ligeti’s ~contemporary and friend (also a Hungarian) is Peter Eotvos who played with and was effectively mentored by Stockhausen. Eotvos (having an international reputation for handling – and teaching how to conduct – difficult music) is one of the few conductors who can faithfully deliver Stockhausen’s pieces.
