Classical Revolution: Chamber Music Where It Belongs by Ed Baskerville

Classical Revolution is a worldwide collective dedicated to spreading chamber music outside its usual borders. Amidst cries about the irrelevancy of classical music, Classical Revolution shows not only that classical music can be relevant, but that it is relevant. The intimate, direct, human, social, interactive, and real-time nature of chamber music makes it eternally powerful, and yet we erect barriers between audiences and performers in the form of recital halls, clapping rules, and social stratification. By putting chamber music back where it belongs—in small rooms, with friends—Classical Revolution restores that power.
