"We"

Classical music is deader than Dillinger, but you knew that already.

Classical music is more 'music' than anything extant today. There is more substance there, but generic punk and metal with vaguely nationalist themes thrown in is hardly music at all. Music is mathematical before it is cultural.

Go ahead, name a classical work made in the last 100 years. Copeland doesn't count.
