Implications - Orchestral music sometimes gets a bad rep for being associated with "snobby" high society. But the combined effects of technology evolving and artists drawing inspiration from the past have given the genre a better reputation. This has spawned unique ways to make orchestrated music more accessible, whether it's modern music being orchestrated or the application of strange instruments such as beer bottles.
