IMO what Gary is looking for describes the majority of casual classical
music listeners; those that should be catered to if the U.S. is ever to
achieve an interest in classical music on a par wtih Europes.
The problem is that American classical music is dominated by those
relative
few who have a preference for the more esoteric forms of classical music.
They seldom think of creating anything like the British Proms or the
European summer programs which are attended by thousands in open
amphitheatres.
Not only would such programs in America solve the constant problem of
financing American classical music performances, it would also
increase the
number of Americans who develop a new interest in more complex classical
music.
