WHAT WE’RE DOING

Classical Post is a new media platform to highlight notable classical music performers and presenters, known and unknown. Traditional media is cutting back on classical music coverage and we are filling the gap providing excellent highlights, not criticism, on the industry.

WHY WE’RE DOING IT

Classical musicians and organizations desperately want to share their incredible work to the world. The media landscape has drastically changed over recent years. Coverage has shrunk to record lows. There is opportunity to re-examine the model for classical coverage. 

We want to inform readers of performances/projects/recordings that are noteworthy. They might be produced by well-known musicians or presented at recognizable organizations. And, they might also be delivered by lesser-known musicians/organizations, yet should be given the limelight for their creativity and contribution to the classical music world. 

Classical Post wants to fix this problem of low media coverage for classical musicians and organizations and showcase performances/projects/recordings of all in the classical music industry that are noteworthy or simply fascinating/creative.

READER BENEFITS 

Readers learn about new projects, performances, curations, series, recordings, collaborations, partnerships that often get missed in the press (both traditional media and classical music-centric media) due to the downsizing of classical media.

Readers consume quality articles about both household classical music names and lesser-known musicians/organizations.

STAY TUNED

We plan on launching the website with full articles in September 2018 (soft launch July 2018).

To be considered for Classical Post and have your performance/recording/project featured, please send an email to info@classicalpost.com. We will try to respond as soon as possible.
