Classical Music
Timeless and with perfect pitch, classical music transcends just about every other musical genre - why else call it classical if it were to wilt in the face of fashion fads and passing phases?
Think glorious vocals and immediately your mind races ahead to the brilliance of Bocelli or the more home grown triumphs of Lesley Garrett and Katherine Jenkins or the emerging prominence of Britain’s Got Talent prodigy, Paul Potts.
But never ever mistake timeless for tired. Classical can be served in a traditional format or it can be equally susceptible to a vigorous infusion of contemporary flavouring courtesy of the likes of violinist Vanessa Mae, peerless pianist Myleene Klass and Bond, the female quartet who merge classical with salsa, folk and techno house styles...whatever would Beethoven have said?
