Different subject entirely: The influence of pop music on classical music.
Which, frankly, I'd find much easier to write about than the other way
around, which is why I admire the original poster for undertaking the
subject of the influence of classical on modern music. The interesting
thing is that she said "modern" not "popular". There is actually modern
classical music, so the whole paper COULD be devoted to how earlier
classical music traditions have influenced modern composers.
