The online discussion Twenty-five Years took place and was recorded on Thursday 28 December 2023.

The subject for discussion was Twenty-five Years, celebrating a quarter of a century of daily publication of this online magazine.

The questions asked in the session were as follows:

  • Is there anything that specially stands out in terms of what we've published here during the last twenty-five years?
  • Are you optimistic or pessimistic about the future of classical music, in terms of composing, performing or listening?
  • How do you think the classical music world has changed over the last twenty-five years?
  • Which recent trends in classical music do you think will be important looking forward?
