Is Classical Music a dying breed?
I am curious to think of what DVs thinks about classical music, and whether or not its fading out of popularity (or has already phased out) or is going to make a comeback at some point. And also, since I play classical music myself, I'll redefine the date range as starting from the 900 BC to about 1960 AD, since the term "classical music" as a genre is misleading because it really specifies music in the 1800s. Some prominent composers specifically from the classical period are Beethoven, Alberti, Boccherini, and C.P.E Bach. Sorry I had to get that rant out, its just misleading because technically Western/European music is split into various periods and labeling it as all "classical" is technically wrong. Even though I just refer to it as "classical music" as well lol.
And I'll also say that I enjoy rock, metal, and other types of music as well, not just classical music. Anyway, I feel that because of the internet and pop music, that classical music has been largely dwarfed and am wondering what everyone's take on this music situation is.
