evelopment of classical music in Indonesia

Classical music has its own place among music fans. Some people say that classical music is the music of the elite. Not a few who admit honestly that is not easy to be helped to enjoy classical music. It must be recognized that classical music is the kind of classy music, his music Gedongan people, without learning music will surely be impossible or difficult to play.
Yet on the other hand there is the understanding of some circles that says that if a child has been accustomed to listening to classical music, then it will add to the intelligence of the child. Besides, there are also saying that by listening to classical music, then the peace of mind will be obtained. Classical music is believed to be useful as an antidote to stress. Moreover classical music, is believed to develop one's aesthetic taste, develop human capacity to enjoy the beauty.
Unfortunately, classical music recordings are not easily available in the market, unlike other types of music. To hear it was rather difficult, because only one of two radio transmitters that regularly plays classical music types. Moreover, television stations, broadcast television is very rare performances of classical music, because it is almost certain to broadcast classical music, TV ratings will not rise.
Has long been many efforts to popularize classical music. Republic of Indonesia's first president, Sukarno in the 1950s was always ordered to play classical music in Bogor botanical garden on a Sunday and public holidays while visiting to enjoy the beauty and cleanliness of Bogor botanical garden at that time. Songs such as The Blue Danube Johann Strauss always reverberated from a Sunday or holiday with loudspeakers in Bogor botanical garden. Until now, if I am crossing the Bogor botanical garden, then the faint sound back in the recesses of my memory of the song The beautiful blue Danube. Although that's actually the only classic song that I knew. Kinda sad, because as a music fan, I was not one of those music fans or fans of music school Gedongan possible. I love classical music, but rather limited to only certain songs, which is not too serious. Sad indeed.
Addie MS, the famous conductor, with his Twilight Orchestra, aware of this. Visible from many of his efforts to try to popularize classical music, ranging from the school children to the other segments of the community of music fans. Efforts are commendable, but it must be recognized classical musicians are still limited in number and apart from that without adequate funding support will be very difficult effort to be realized quickly. Public attention also seems not so in favor of this effort. One of the many problems facing is, Jakarta itself as the capital of the country, up to now has not had the Concert Hall can be proud of. Maybe Jakarta is the only state capital that has not had a "Concert Hall".
Listening to classical music, it is also a problem in itself. Many people are fond of saying that classical music, in listening to classical music performances, the audience must be disciplined, in the sense of not talking, not applauding before the song was over all, let alone co-hum ria, if by chance the well known song. Too many rules, it may also inhibit the classical music have a place the hearts of his fans.

Not much is known here, was classical music is currently being hit by a wave of change, which was pioneered by a man named Andre Rieu proficient violinist Johann Strauss as well as Conductor of the Orchestra. Andre Leon Marie Nicolas Rieu, his full name, was born in a small town in the Netherlands on October 1, 1949. His father was also a conductor, Andre Rieu and myself started learning to play the violin at the age of less than 5 years. He revolted from pakemnya classical music performances. At every appearance, he would invite the audience to participate, to contribute to dance when he plays rhythmic waltz song (in concert performances at the Royal Albert Hall London). Invites viewers to participate in singing along to his songs and even sang with a rinse his mouth (on the performances of his concert at the football stadium with a capacity of 18,000 people in Germany). Invites viewers to dance along, while his band plays Irish folk song with a famous violinist in Dublin (on pagelarannya in Northern Ireland). Invites audience participation is a key to the popularity of Andre Rieu. Not only that, even on the sidelines performer Andre Rieu interlude also bring some fresh jokes from some of his players. Together with his musical group formed in 1987 with the name of Johann Strauss Orchestra, now with a number of players over 50 musicians, Andre Rieu busy crossed the globe to meet the demands of his fans. Five years is very dense schedule. He had a gig in almost all countries in Europe, in New York the United States, Japan, Korea and Australia. He has won two World Music Award fruit and 8 times platinum music awards. Andre Rieu is so phenomenal that it gained its popularity thanks to the rebellion of the norms that have been commonly adopted by the fans of classical music among other disciplines to place his seat in silence enjoying the music pegelaran. He appeared with a very neat clothes as worn by a classical musician and also a conductor, but with body language and appearance are very sloppy in these measures is usually the case in classical music pegelaran. Beyond expectations, with a performance like that Andre Rieu gained so many fans around the world. One breakthrough was considered eccentric, proved very successful in its mission to unearth classical music. Many critics say that Andre Rieu is it supposed to come up with the melodramatic style of the stage performances of classical music on its merit, but she actually appear in the style of a "rock star", something very "eccentric" and inappropriate. However, the public response was not able to stem the criticism-criticism. He is now overwhelmed with so many requests from around the world appear, music fans at this time is devoted to enjoying classical music of Johann Strauss Orchestra Andre Rieu under the leadership, the conductor as well as a proficient violinist with the display style of rock music star, he invited all the audience participation to the rhythm of the song he played. July and August to September 2008 with its full schedule of cities in Europe such as Paris, Touluse, Berlin and others. November and December 2008, Andre Rieu perform with full concert tour in Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane. Classical music is in her world travels. The big question is, when Andre Rieu Johann Strauss Orchestra with him to Indonesia?
