More People Love Classical During Tough Times

Survey Participants at Largest Online Classical Music Site, www.ClassicalArchives.com Say Classical Music Acts as a Stress Reliever

In a survey just conducted by Classical Archives, the ultimate online destination for classical music, over 20% of the respondents said they love classical music because it relaxes them and acts as a stress reliever in their hectic lives. The survey suggests that classical music, more than rock and pop, is able to calm the nerves in tough times.

Here is the full roster of results to the survey, which asked:

Why do you think you love classical music?

60.2% - It is simply the best music there is
20.3% - Relaxes me when life is stressing me out
9.0% - My parents played classical music at home growing up
7.6% - I’m a freak for culture
2.9% - It is a great aphrodisiac

Nolan Gasser, Artistic Director, Classical Archives, notes, that “Are the results surprising? Hardly. Especially in tough economic times, people are turning to classical music to help them get through the day and to give them the calm and resolve they need to face their daily challenges. People are finding that there’s nothing like the inspiration and soothing nature of classical music to relieve the stresses of a tough economy.”
