It is frequently presumed that lovers of Classical music are not present in social media. In this paper, we investigate whether this statement can be empirically veriﬁed. To this end, we compare two social media platforms — Last.fm and Twitter — and perform a study on musical preference of their respective users. We investigate two research hypotheses: (i) Classical music fan are more reluctant to use social media to indicate their listing habits than listeners of other genres and (ii) there are correlations between the use of Last.fm and Twitter to indicate music listening behavior. Both hypotheses are veriﬁed and substantial diﬀerences could be made out for Twitter users. The results of these investigations will help improve music recommendation systems for listeners with non-mainstream music taste.
