Engaging the Community
In reply to Aaron Flagg’s comment on Day 1 :
Although I understand the need to reach out to a broader constituency, I still maintain that what we do appeals primarily to a smaller percentage of the population and to that end, we need to secure that base first, even though I see the general makeup of the audience changing. I still do not anticipate much more than 4% of the population as regular concertgoers. Attempts to bring in new audiences with presentations such as scores from video games and NFL scenes are one-off affairs. These should not be intended to entice listeners into musical realms in which they are not comfortable.
