We still talk about Motzart, Bach, etc. What modern musicians will people still be talking about in 200 years?

  1. Probably none.

    The reality is that the great composers came from a world of music that was exclusive to the elite and educated and patronized by nobility.

    We really only talk about a handful of special composers per century.

    We don’t talk about the pop music performers of the time… Because there were many and their music accessible.

    The same is true of today’s era. The democratization of music is an amazing thing but does make it so no music will really outlive its century in the same way.
