This guide focuses(聚焦) on classic music, a tradition that originated before recordings, radio, and the Internet, back when all music was live music. In those days live human beings performed for other live human beings, with everybody together in the same room. When heard in this way, classic music can have a special excitement. Hearing classic music in a concert can leave you feeling refreshed and energized. It can be fun. It can be romantic(浪漫的). It can be spiritual(心靈的).

But don’t worry. Concerts are no stranger than any other amusement(消遣), and the rules of behavior are much simpler and easier to understand than the stock market, football, or system software programs.
