TECHNOPOLIS 20 - OPEN DISCUSSION.

Autour d’un café

Open Discussion 5:

“What would inspire people to attend a classical music concert?”

Classical music is seen as a problem by many of the everyday contemporary listeners. Many think that, without a deep knowledge of its history or its theory, they cannot really appreciate it. Others simply consider the classical music boring and feel that it does not express them, that it has nothing essential to offer them and that is something that does not concern them. Either one feels insufficient when listening to classical music, or indifferent, the question is whether the classical music still is (or can be) accessible today. What would inspire someone to attend a classical music concert? What kind of presentation would it take to prove (or show) to the listener that the classical music can concern (and offer many things to) anyone?

A discussion not only for the classical music lovers but especially for those who have never attended a concert of classical music and who believe that this kind of music does not express them and has nothing to offer them.

The above considerations and questions will be discussed at the 5^th Open Discussion of the “Autour d’un café” series, on Wednesday, February 23 at 7:30pm, at Technopolis 20. Coordinator will be the musician Chrysostomos Neofytou.

The discussion will be in Greek.
