Classical music brings us joy and meaning. In this time of doom and gloom, we need to talk about that | James Murphy

I'm so done with how little visibility classical music gets these days 🙄. Like, can't we just give it some love for once? Funding cuts and university closures are major bummer. I mean, who doesn't need some soothing Mozart or Bach to calm them down after a crazy day 🎶. The internet has changed the game, but honestly, that's not necessarily a good thing – now everyone's a critic & you gotta make it super concise for people to care 😴.

These stories about community projects & musicians doing amazing work should be front-page news 💡! Like, an opera in Gresford about mining? That's inspiring 🙌. Or the Royal Scottish National Orchestra's interactive stuff – that's what I want more of, not just some stuffy old symphony 😴.

People are recognizing classical music's worth again 👏. Concerts are getting busier & surveys say 84% of adults wanna experience a live show 🤯. It's about time we celebrated all the hard work out there in the sector!
