Abstract
This paper examines the emerging trend of soundtrack music concerts, a genre closely related to classical music, and their potential role in attracting new audiences to symphonic performances. By analyzing a comprehensive database of global soundtrack concerts, we aim to understand where these concerts are most prevalent and identify the key players in this burgeoning field. Our study also investigates audience demographics, behaviors, and preferences, comparing soundtrack concertgoers with traditional classical music audiences. We explore the impact of different concert formats and the role of technological enhancements in audience engagement. Additionally, the integration of video game scores into soundtrack concerts is analyzed to determine its influence on audience demographics and engagement.
Through a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data analysis with qualitative insights, this paper provides a detailed understanding of the current trends and future potential of soundtrack music concerts in the classical music industry.
