jmc's classics
In the Radio Arts foundation's web page and Facebook pagerafstl.org there is a link to an article in The Guardian that says that more young people are listening to classical music. The Guardian is a British newspaper.
It is an interesting article. It says that young people are being exposed to classical music via concerts and film soundtracks. It has a link to Scala Radio which is a British Classical web radio. As of now I have not checked it out. It would take to long to recap the entire article. As I have said before, Classical Music is used a lot in film soundtracks and commercials. There are many reasons why it is becoming more popular among younger people in recent years. Country music had been popular with younger people. Person ally, I think that much of the lyrics of Country music are very depressing. Songs about being down on your luck etc. sounds depressing. That is what a lot of the Country Music Lyrics are about. I went to college in Springfield, MO near Branson and it was popular in that area of the country. I do like some country Music. I have never visited Branson. I am worried about Branson going bust. if it happens that area of the country will suffer. In recent decades, Springfield, MO and the surrounding area has been growing. The article is mainly about the scene in Brittan. I don't know much of it is happening in America. I hope that it does make a stronger comeback among the younger generations in America.
