Contents page investigations





When i was researching contents pages it took me a while to find some good quality contents pages that were relevant to a classical music magazine. This could be down to the fact that in the music magazine industry, pop, punk, and rock magazines ( as well as many other sub genres ) are found to be more popular and more looked at than classical magazines. I believe this is due to the rise of teenagers and young adults becoming more obsessed with 'new age' music and with the easy access of quickly downloading music no wonder this is the case.

Classical music has always taken a backseat in the music industry. It is seen as boring and tedious. On the contrary, a lot of people think it is soothing, relaxing and rather enjoyable. The age group i have found that listens to this music more is 40+. i am not saying that because of my research anyone under the age of 40 do not listen to classical music, i listen to classical music, it is just that a large percentage of people around that age choose to listen to classical over pop.
