Is classical music still relevant today?

Holy **** I heard the best album I’ve heard in a long time last night, it fuses classical impressionism with Neo-Soul and Hip Hop.

Look up Infinity Knives, Dear Sudan is the album.

Destined to become an MB classic bc it’s so unknown. Imo better than to pimp a butterfly

Music is relevant if people still want to play it and listen to it. And there are plenty of people who enjoy playing and listening to classical music. So yes, it's still" relevant".

To me pop music isn't relevant. I never listen to it. Unless I have to take the elevator. Or go shopping. Then I'm forced to listen.

You sound like a man of superior judgement. Welcome to MB!

I believe classical music is still extremely popular, especially among certain groups of people including me.

I think classical music is still highly relevant. Just look at how popular Han Zimmer is with the incredible music we hear in movies!

Welcome to MB! __________________ "In postwar Europe, on the whole, anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and equally absurd hatreds rooted in ancient religious texts became a disgraced and dead relic buried in the ruins of the Third Reich.
