Alexander Armstrong: Unclassical – In Conversation


What happens to culture in a world where machines can do almost everything? An entertaining and optimistic conversation about music, meaning, and why culture matters more than ever.

As AI accelerates, Alexander Armstrong argues that the answer isn’t to compete with it – but to rediscover what makes us human. In this lively and thought-provoking conversation with his trademark warmth and wit, Armstrong sets out the vision behind UnClassical: a movement to unlock the emotional power of classical music and bring it back into everyday life.
