About Classical Underground (CU):
Classical Underground is a camaraderie of artists, musicians, and friends joining in their subversive belief in eternal, enduring, and ever-present living ART. Classical Underground is a cause-driven cultural movement and a cross-discipline platform, which explores the relationship between Classical expressions in Music and Visual Art forms, explores and incubates its application as an effective contemporary society-building tool. Our founding principle is the clarity of intent. In the great debate weather ART has a future in the commercialized world fractured by hyper greed, we say ART is the Future. ART is the ever-flaming torch of humanism in the society facing storm.
