I don't see how he would fit into that category of niche listeners seeing as how I described his musical habits as pretty mainstream. I think that even the most basic listener today has been exposed (perhaps indirectly and without personal intent) and thereby somewhat affected by classical music seeing as how it's found embedded in modern pop culture everywhere (ie: dramatizing cat-n-mouse scenes in familiar cartoons, in the background of most car commercials, etc). To say it isn't relevant to the modern person would pretty much mean that that person has been living under a rock without internet access for his entire existence.
