if the symphonies weren't government-funded classical would die. very few people care any more.

it's music by 'those awful white people.'

Now that's a strange comment. Yeah, I guess that's why two opera houses in Vienna are sold out every night for the entire 10 month season each year. All those people coming to see the opera just "don't care". Symphony? Forget about it. You can't even get a ticket to the symphony here in Vienna unless you inherit it.

I think you'll find plenty of people that like music from the 1700's, 1800's and 1900's. I wasn't aware skin color had anything to do with it.
