Broad I know... but i thought it would be good to get a discussion going on the future of classical music in all it's guises and what we think is in store?
I for one believe that the future is very bright indeed. Over the last few years I have felt a real change in attitudes towards classical/opera, particularly among the younger generation 18-35. I think accessibility has improved at the same time that people are looking for more 'earthly' and refined cultural experiences. New venues are opening across town, festivals are aplenty, and their is an intriguing live scene that combines classical music performers with dance music DJs - One of the pioneers is the grandson of Prokofiev!! - not everyones cup of tea I know but I think it's an absolutely fantastic thing to be happening and vital to the ongoing development of the genre.
I could go on but what does everyone else think? |

| It is true. I have fallen in love with opera in general. Turned on to it by my 17 year old daughter. I love it! |
