Information suggests classical music is reaching new demographics

August 24, 2009

Bling Bling2

Information released today shows that classical music is reaching new demographics. As part of an initiative to bring classical music to underserved and underprivileged inner city youth, publisher Boosey & Hawkes sponsored the commission of a new work that was premiered at the program’s opening event in Washington, DC.

The Cereal List has obtained a video excerpt of the performance:

While initial reactions to Bling Bling appeared to be overwhelmingly positive, The Cereal List has uncovered some information that suggests a hint of animosity. It seems that just after the work’s premiere a new term found its way into the Urban Dictionary. No word yet on what Hawkes is street slang for.

    If anybody deserves to be made fun of, it’s definitely Michael Daugherty. Thanks for this.
