Contrary to popular belief, most classical musicians actually enjoy and listen to classical music. Even some of those uptight professors listen to popular music from their times. I know I’ve had a few of mine admit, even proudly, that they still enjoy the Beatles, AC/DC, Pink Floyd and even current popular music.
One of my all-time favorite bands is the Smashing Pumpkins. This happens to be one of my 2 favorite songs of all times.
