    As someone who plays in an orchestra professionally, I totally 1000% agree with you. It’s a weird fine line that I enjoy music, but I do it as a career because I really enjoy playing with other people and the music itself is almost secondary. Good luck explaining that to people who Really Like Classical Music, lol.

    There’s a lot of elitism in it and it sadly alienates a lot of would-be concert goers, I feel like.

      This. I attended several concerts and recitals when I was in college. A girl I was seeing was actually music major. Now I’m a hick who just happened to get a degree and enjoy classical music. But I felt like a fish out of water before and after the concerts. Concerts themselves were excellent.
