I know things have been a bit quiet on the CCM front but behind-the-scenes we have been working to create a better experience for our readers. One thing we are excited about is a change of format which will allow us to share content with you more frequently.

What’s Changing?

Issues will now be published article by article.

Due to how incredibly busy the artists and our contributor’s schedules are, sometimes a full issue can take quite a while to be finished and unfortunately on occasion some of the questions from artists who responded early may sound dated by the time the issue is ready.

I’ve decided to start sharing each feature as it’s ready and then once all the features have been published you can check out the full issue (in all it’s glory!) in the format you know and love.

We’ll be sharing the first interview with talented tenor, Jay Dref very soon!

You Decide Who’s the Cover Star

In honor of this change, for our Spring 2020 issue, you the reader will decide which artist is featured on the cover. Stayed tuned for news on how to vote!

New Contributor

We’re very excited to soon announce a new member to the Classical Crossover Magazine team, who is a wonderful artist and ambassador for the genre. The new member will be contributing a regular column. Any guesses who this might be?

Even More Changes

Because of persistent website issues last year, I will be splitting the content of this site with a new sister website called, ‘Classical Crossover Music.’ The sister site will host artist profiles and album information. It’s currently under construction but we hope to share the new site soon.
