Legendary maestro Leonard Slatkin provides personal insights and
offers his ideas to solve the current dilemmas of classical music.
As the new millennium poses some of the greatest challenges to the
relevance of the art form, Slatkin reflects on the modern evolution
of classical music and presents ways for both music lovers and
musicians alike to navigate these uncertain times. Classical
Crossroads: The Path Forward for Music in the 21st-Century
addresses a wide range of relevant and provocative topics such as
performance in the era of COVID-19, shrinking audiences, the lack
of classical music in public education, broken audition systems,
technology replacing live concerts, and the lack of diversity in
the classical music world. While the new millennium has provided
great obstacles, Slatkin emphasizes that there are also new
opportunities-if there was ever a time for change in classical
music, that time is now.
