Speaking of Mozart, The Pope decided Allegri's Miserere mei Deus was too beautiful to allow the common folk to listen to, and forbade it to be published. This drove up demand for access to the Sistine Chapel Tenebrae services as a handy side effect.

he was right about the beautiful part, anyways:

Anyways, Mozart heard it while touring Rome at 14. He then proceeded to transcribe the whole thing, later, from memory. Eventually giving it to a publisher who released the song to public.

I play classical saxophone sometimes and even I don't listen to it on my own accord unless I'm trying to learn something. I know people attend concerts but it pretty much has to be either they know someone in the band or its a super famous one. I think it's mostly old people that still listen to it. Anybody wanna prove me wrong? Everyone here is old now so maybe someone's kid listens to it?

Actually, between TikTok and Spotify it's probably more likely a bunch of kids out there have favorite Classical pieces they like than 10 years ago.

Like my kids listen to 60's soul, '70s funk, and '80s pop just because of memes, Hell, my wife knows a bunch of Classical stuff because the Piano Guys were big on YouTube back when that was a thing.
