Iván Fischer on the future of classical music

Iván Fischer on the future of classical music

In this episode, David introduces Iván Fischer’s Opening Keynote from Classical:NEXT 2026, a standout moment of the event that left delegates in deep discussion for days after.

A Budapest native and musical polymath, Maestro Fischer shares an honest reflection on the future of classical music, drawing on his unique perspective as one of the most innovative musical minds of our time. He believes we are the "dinosaurs" of this art form, fighting to keep it alive in a world that’s losing interest. The traditional concert experience is at risk, with audiences struggling to focus and a shrinking repertoire that doesn't resonate with new generations.

Fischer highlights the need for innovation in how we present and engage with classical music. It's not just about the performance, but understanding what today’s audiences truly need – an ideal conversation starter for the return of The Classical:NEXT Podcast.
