Nowadays music artists with little or no talent become very famous and makes millions of dollars. They use acoustic instruments very less and depend highly on electronics and beats. It is sad because the classical composers were the real talents. The actually created music. They were not just talented but hardworking devoting their entire life to music.

Not sure about your use of the word were there are many brilliant composers writing for Brass Bands,Windbands,Big Bands and Military Bands etc. There is a lot more to music other than pop music or film music. Well that is where the money is but does it stand up as music? mmmmmmm.
