He's wrong to say it's been 'hijacked' by the middle class as it's always been an elitist form of music anyway. But people who are toffy about it aren't going to help broaden it's appeal, like the guy crying in the cello solo. Moron.
Awww fuck. I saw this before. I like classical music. I just like it, I apprechiate it, but when people make a big deal out of it it makes it so unreachable. It's a bit like Jesus coming up and saying that people shouldn't hurt others and they should not care for wordly possessions too much, people should love one another and screw all the assholes and focus on themselves, and then some dick starts the crusades only to put people off the whole point of it.
Normally Bill's word is GOLD but here I disagree with him. I'm not particularly interested in classical music but I still enjoyed watching it on a screen in the park (which was free). Also I don't think it's that expensive.
2:18, i would love to chin that fella with the glasses. He is there just purely taking the piss. She's playing her heart out and that prick is doing that.
@DomIstKrieg If it was me playing the chello I'd be more annoyed by the people passing the tissues... To me it looks like they're taking the piss even though they're probably not
@edwards21416 He wasn't saying that, he was saying it is not only for toffs but the appearance of it and the "toffery" pay put of the working class from enjoying it.
and this has what to do with tim minchin?
