Yes, it's an ageist thing.  ;-)  It has to have come from an era, quite
a long time ago, to be called classical.  I remember telling someone
that I used to like listening to classical music on ABC radio, which I
meant the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, they thought it meant
Anything But Country.  LOL!

Take the music from the original three Star Wars films.  It certainly
has a classical, almost operatic, style to it.  But it's modern era. 
Although you can find the classic pieces that inspired much of it if
you dig around.  There were a pair of violinists with a YouTube channel
that delved into it (TwoSet, if I remember correctly).  It's no secret
that was done, it was edited to classical music and the composer was
asked to create something similar.

Me, neither.  At least it seems that they've been forward enough to
create a system that can just use longer UIDs when they've used up all
the combinations of an eleven digit code, unlike some other internet
address issues...  IPv4 & IPv6 fun and pain, anyone?

And speaking of youtube coding, I've always been curious about people
who had a hardware display sitting on their desk showing some statistic
about their channel (such as a live count of how many subscribers). 
I've never delved into it, though.  I suppose they could just be
scraping some of the content of a channels cover page.

They've got a variety of instruments.  The big organ is a tracker
(mechanical linkages between all the parts, no electronics), has two
manuals and a pedalboard that seems way too large for one person, it's
around 128 years old (we are a fairly young city).  They've also got a
foot pedal pumped harmonium (I haven't tried it), an upright piano and
a grand (I have tried that).  I'm not a member, they've just held the
occasional open-mike concerts there.  I was surprised I was allowed to
play it, prior experience in filming weddings for 20 odd years was that
they all guard their organs like the crown jewels.

I've also played a computer-controlled using MIDI theatre organ
Wurlitzer, but they won't let me upload recordings anywhere with
committee approval, and I can't be bothered dealing with that.  It's an
interesting system, cobbled together in a pioneering way before there
were any well-organised (pun intended) projects for computer driving
organs.  There are some confusing propagation delays with some of the
parts, such as a MIDI controlled upright piano, and some other
percussive instruments, yet the pipes don't seem to have any delays.
