The potential classical music listener is a much debated person. As a new client, record buyer and concert-goer he or she enjoys an almost mystical status. Discourse on this topic is often based on many un-tested assumptions. Young or old? A well-educated art lover or absolute hedonist? Alternative or conservative mindset? Just looking for a background music playlists, or interested in solitarily listening to a symphony?

While each classical music online entrepreneur has their own specific, well-kept insights, a lot of research and common knowledge is available, only so far, it is scattered across the scene. This workshop will present data, research and interviews collected by various participants over the years to then collectively structure the vast pool of information on digital behavior of music listeners – especially those who dare to listen to classical and art music online.

All delegates are invited to participate beforehand and on site. The collection will be made available online.
