Yes, classical music is the fundamental of any music that exists today. You take Bach's Fugues for example, and you can learn how to layer sounds and how to exhibit each voice such that the listener can catch onto the melody, as well as create interesting harmonies.
The 1-4-5 chord progressions pop musicians use today are going out the window IMO. Classical music is on a comeback. Good music is good music regardless of instrumentation.
