From rock bands to symphonies, Song Jianping is rewriting the rules of classical music 🎶. The Beijing-based musician, who once fronted a rock band and sold theater tickets, has founded Music Fans Classical—a symphony orchestra blending classical arrangements with pop anthems. Their viral 2022 symphonic cover of Eason Chan’s hit ‘Lonely Warrior’ catapulted them to internet fame, proving that orchestral music can be as relatable as a TikTok trend 🎵.
🌐 Song’s vision? To make live classical performances accessible to everyone, not just concert hall regulars. \"Music shouldn’t feel like a museum exhibit,\" he says. By infusing pop melodies into grand symphonic compositions, the orchestra creates a bridge between generations—think Beethoven meets BTS vibes 💥.
📅 With a decade-long plan to take their music worldwide, Song aims to turn Music Fans Classical into a global sensation. Whether you’re a K-pop stan or a Chopin enthusiast, this orchestra’s genre-blurring beats are a reminder: great music knows no labels 🎼✨.
