Do people have to have been dead for centuries to qualify as dead enough?

Dead = reviving older traditions of performance styles, dead composers, dead performance...is classical music dead? What is alive in music?

there is a well known tv show by experimental guitarist derek bailey about improvisation in music that has a segment about classical music and they showed that sections for improvisation were written into pieces but left out of contemporary performances.

i don't remember "cadenzas". it was implied that "classical" audiences want to hear the same thing over and over again and so the "improv" parts were excised

Dead composer anecdote: when Pierre Boulez died, the director of my workplace gave a lot of interviews (I work at IRCAM). Trouble was a music store was holding a closing sale nearby, so you had the somber director fake mourning the founder's death with a stream of happy people in the background showing off what they had scored. The director moved interviews to his office

They hated each other. One thing I liked about Boulez is he would visit and stop to talk with cleaning people. I was told that was genuine, but he sure didn't mind making wait someone who wouldn't be caught dead talking to them. Boulez had a sense of class (in both ways): I was once in an elevator with him, he chatted with my coworker and ignored me, he knew I was more secure
