But, will every song by 50cent and JayZ still be listened to in 100 years?<br /><br />Pseu: I adore the Pastoral and the 9th too and the sonatas too! I would love to attend a program at the LA Philharmonic with just music by Beethovan.<br /><br />LBF: Good for you for being involved with the OC Phil! <br /><br />We have to support our institutions that keep our cultural heritage alive. The LA Opera has an outreach program that teaches school children about opera. Children need exposure to classical symphonic music as well...god knows too few of them are getting it from their parents.Belle de Villehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14045827018848979761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-634482722536566879.post-68603546427419160802010-12-11T17:09:47.933-08:002010-12-11T17:09:47.933-08:00Completely agree with this.

I'm involved with the Philharmonic Society (OC) and just bought a ticket to the Vienna Philharmonic for March 2011. Can't wait! :)<br /><br />The current system is unsustainable, to be sure, but if we want it to change we must alter our behaviour. For every one handsome betweeded fogey who likes books and classical music, there are a hundred deadbeats who spend their lives on the sofa watching over-paid sub-humanoids run back and forth across a playing field somewhere. This only encourages the corporate elites to keep paying the sub-humanoids undeserved sums and helps perpetuate the system.<br /><br />That said, the elites in power, including the music industry thugs in Hollywood, only <i>glorify</i> violence. When the real thing hits them--and it will--they won't have a clue how to react! The recent youth riots in London, Paris, and Moscow only highlight the impotence of Western governments and their helplessness in the face of unrest.<br /><br />Crank up the Beethoven!Laguna Beach Fogeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027025872132699493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-634482722536566879.post-50465547647129826062010-12-11T14:01:05.690-08:002010-12-11T14:01:05.690-08:00Last season the Long Beach Symphony featured Beeth...Last season the Long Beach Symphony featured Beethoven pieces during each concert.
