I know a fair few people that don't listen to secular music. Or when someone is trying to spend time in worship it's always cliche christian music. I'm not against stuff like that. I don't like the "sameness" but have been pleasantly surprised with new artists and new creativity there that's solid.
Anyway, what's your take on classical? It's music. There are no words. No way to slip an "our god reigns" in there or "Jesus paid it all"...and I know some that don't listen because they feel like it's secular.
I feel like a lot of classical composers back in the day (think bach) were mindful of the creator and it was sort of a testament/tribute of praise to his majesty.
There are some composers who drew inspiration from "the pit" but these are a small minority.
I will expand a bit if discussion occurs. I'm sort of on the fence about it myself. I go on a musical journey when I listen to late night classical. NOTHING paints vivid pictures in my mind like that. There will occasionally be a mainstream (or semi-mainstream) song I can "breathe" to but it's rare.
