Attendance of vice-president – who once disbelieved that people listened to classical music for pleasure – strikes sour note at Kennedy Center in light of Maga takeover
The situation invokes a thought of ‘Inglourious Basterds’
I agree but I think its weird some people are attached to old classical music composers. There is newer better stuff or even classical variants like you would hear in Bridgerton. Its painful watching kids playing those horrible scores at competitions just cause its traditional and expected.
Side note: 100% certain it was the songs cause after events I go to yt to check pros play them and it was still awful.
Opera was originally art for the masses. I get the thing about everyone thinking its elitest but i was brought up by 2 generations of working class people who loved opera and classical music. Worked at the Derby Playhouse, its just elitist because its in movies and stuff a lot

You can say exactly the same about any music
Yes I but i think its gatekeeping and pretentious. The elites just use old classical as their thing.

100% there’s a culture of gatekeeping and elitism all too common around classical music - but it’s not the music’s fault
