the current situation with classical

concerts nowadays.

Hence

, in

this

essay, I will be exploring the reasons for the

lack

of enthusiasm among young

people

and state my opinion on how to make young

more proactive. A possible reason might be the costs involved in being more active in the world of classical

music

. The market price for a

ranges from $650 to a few thousand depending on the quality, craftsmen and the skill level of the player.
