With regards to the genre you picked, do you think classical music is superior in comparison?
Finally, if you do think classical music is superior, explain what aspects of classical music convinced you of its superiority? If you do not think it is superior, explain what aspects of your chosen musical genre make it equal or better than classical music, perhaps something that you can't get from the latter?

If you are a relativist that believes that all music is good in its own way, just think of the word "superiority" and "better" in a subjective way with regards to the question.

If you picked more than one genres, you can answer differently for each.

I like all kinds of modern jazz from bebop to ECM type stuff. I don't believe there is any point in comparing it to classical music. And many of the modern jazz musicians are virtuoso players with phenomenal technique on par with classical musicians.
One aspect of modern jazz or progressive rock music I really enjoy is listening to great trap drum set players. You don't get to experience this much in classical music.
