That makes the music relevant.
I would say you are referring more to what is 'Popular' not what is 'relevant'

I measure the relevance of Classical music by the impact it has had in our culture and on music itself not how popular it currently is..

everybody has heard Classical music at one point and even if they don't like it they are aware it exists

Even if its not the most popular genre it is still drawing ppl in,
it is still influencing musicians to play it,
it still has a place in this crazy bieber one direction times we are living in lol
