     Stefan,

     Agreed!  Take for example the composer Olivier Messiaen who was 
interned (against his will)
as a doctor in a German concentration camp.  It was there that he composed 
the 'Quartet for the
End of Time' and it was performed there for the entire camp... prisoners, 
guards, and staff.  He
said later that at no time in his entire career did he feel as 
'understood' as at that
performance.

     Sometimes it takes extraordinary conditions...

The average audience member is highly underrated. Especially by
organisers. If the music is done well, you can reach any audience, no
matter how far away you are from the mainstream or from what the
audience usually expects.
Exactly that is the artistic challenge!
