  Jul 6, 202630 min

  Classical music has been around for centuries, but in a rapidly changing world, many arts organizations are asking an important question how do we keep the music meaningful, engaging, and relevant for today's audiences?

Today, we're delighted to be interviewing Andrew Arceci to explore what it means to make classical music relevant today.
