Classical Music Heritage and the Growing Pop-Culture

Hey. I think both classical and pop music travel parallel, both are good. Most of the Indians prefer Classical but many youth are attracted to pop music. But a/c to me the pleasure that classical music gives, nothing can replace it. My vote goes to classical:) but all types of music should be given its space.

Indian classical music is good to listening A.R.Rehman, Kishor kumar, R.D Buman are old song great happiness for you &pop music is like a younger people they like K.K, Javed ali, Mohit chauhan, Kamal khan any choice are like this so classical & pop music like everyone.

Hello friends, as I think both classical & pop music good in their own respect, It depend on the choice of person what kind of taste he have in music. We can, t listen only one kind of music ever long as after some time it start boring us.

I think most of the music lover like both the rock singer like Atif Aslam, KK, Mohit Chauhan as well as classical singer Kailas kher, Fateh Ali Khan. If You have listen rock music of JAL, Call & Junoon like bands it is so melodious. Young generation always love to listen them. As far as classical is concern in India it is so famous & people can, t leave without listening it. Classical music just remove us from the day to day tension & we are emotionally touch with it. But when its any party time & any huge happiness then we mostly prefer to POP & Mix music.

So it also depend little on situation. So we can say all kind of music is good either it classical or Pop. Music always spread harmony & peace to our life environment. Classical music is the father of all kind of music & it ever lasting in India.

Hii, according to me nowadays we can see so many pop musics are releasing in market but can they remain in our mind for long?or really they touch our heart. I think, no. It comes and stays for very short time. But in case of classical music, they have the capability to attract our mind and heat. Maximum pop musics have very meaningless lyrics which we face sometimes difficult to understand. Only a few of those gets popularity. Even when a pop music comes in market, people hear it for max 5-6 times and they forget it. But classical music's lyrics has good quality, with certain emotional feelings that can easily touch our heart and stays in mind.

I think pop singing is not far different than classical music. We can say that it is on child of classical music. Also it is not that that pop music culture is growing & classical music culture is vanishing. Both these have their own unique place in mind of music lovers. Not only in India but in foreign also classical music is being listened with great happiness. You may have seen that whenever our Indian singers like SONU NIGAM goes to foreign show performance manytimes he firstly starts with classical music or songs & he gets good appreciation as always. This is just an example. So I think classical music has its own place that can never be trespassed by anything in the mind of music lovers.

Swetha!!!!!
Rahman is NOT a pop singer!!!!
Plzzz....!!

Whatever music you like, you must support it!!!

I agree completely with Sherin!!!

Like towards pop music doesn't mean that we people hate classical. We want to shine in pop too. Standing example is the great legend Mr AR Rahman now every corner of world knows who is he.

We must know about the pop music, but we have to encourage our classical music rather than pop music. Our culture relies upon the classical music. Today, youngsters don't know the value of our classical music, its feelings etc.
