To engage (new) audiences, orchestras and opera houses around the world are experimenting with new and often simultaneous modes of distribution, emerging formats, and new technologies-for example, VR, 3D audio, and "live from…" simulcasts. Consequently, classical productions today often need to be captured in a manner that can be repurposed in a multitude of formats. This panel will consider how workflows and aesthetics are changing to embrace new possibilities for classical music. We will review what audio engineering programs are doing to cover both established recording techniques and modern approaches; and also discuss how educators can anticipate future eventualities. What do audio engineering students need to know now to innovate in classical music recording tomorrow?
