Welcome to Classical Matters!
The Art of Music has always been the liveliest of the arts - dynamic, spirited, tragic, thoughtful. The immediacy and power of music can create a revolution in the twinkling of an eye, in a brilliant moment in the heart and mind. The great tradition of classical music has always been on the forefront of the creative revolution and today is going forward in the unparalleled cyber revolution in communication on the internet. Artists are able to reach out and present their work simply and immediately to a worldwide audience - and with excellent audio quality! At Classical Matters, our main goal is to present the work of classical musicians, groups, composers, and conductors - free of charge. We are interested in younger artists seeking exposure as well as established artists. We are inspired by love of classical music and hope our small effort will inspire others to get involved with the excitement of a new world of music.
We are also interested in pro audio technology using computers and music software in creating and recording classical music. We present information on this and related topics on our Digital Technology and Music page.
Presentation of Your Work - Free!
The presentation of your work on Classical Matters includes a personal page with your biographical sketch, a photo page, videos, and , if available, tracks of your music in mp3 format. You will also have an e-mail account in your name. If you are interested in joining Classical Matters, please check out the Contact Page for more details.
