evolving; something old is changed to form a new style, two Classical music certainly isn't the most popular at the moment and there are several reasons why. I believe that part of that reason is that there isn't enough promotion of the music of today, music written in the last several years. Also, the presentation hasn't changed muuch in the last 100 years at least but trends have. It's hard to be popular when you're the guys wearing tuxedos and sitting still while MTV's got people jumping around in your face to get your attention. To me, Classical music is different than popular styles. Neither replaces the other, we need both. I love freaking out at a stadium full of Tool fools just as much as I love hearing the Vienna Philharmonic. Here's a partial list I like, and I'll be happy to make specific recommendations based on your tastes. Email me if there's something you think I should hear, too. Classical Early Music-there are too many composers and not enough big names to compile a good list. I love listening to and performing music written in the 16th and 17th centuries. It's usually so lively and there's lots of opportunity to improvise creatively. Music from this era is written for smaller number of instruments and I also enjoy the energy of a smaller ensemble.
