Who listens to new symphonies, as opposed to works by Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, etc.

Rock and Roll has reached that point.

So true. And art died with the Impressionists.

Speaking of symphonies here is Alice in Chains performing Led Zep’s Kashmir with the Symphony Guild (Seattle I think).

Old song so it doesn’t qualify as new.

There are some really good movie orchestral soundtracks. And my daughter’s orchestra class has played a few interesting newer numbers when they do end of semester shows. I think a couple at least might come off quite well if played by a full orchestra. But... those latter get very little exposure, from what I can tell.
