Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn.
He's not too obscure, but if you haven't heard him check some of his stuff out. It's not classical, but it has a very ethnic-classic sound to it, and it's surprisingly accessible for being so foreign (Pakistani, I think). It has elements of modern pop in it.
EDIT: Also, his studio stuff is pretty eastern-pop. His live stuff and older stuff (80s, maybe) is more traditional.
