When they told me I had cancer - a very rare form called appendiceal cancer - I was shocked. But I went straight into battle mode.

No, I don't know how to get young people to start listening to jazz again. But I do know this: Any symphony orchestra that thinks it can appeal to under-30 listeners by suggesting that they 'should' like Schubert and Stravinsky has already lost the battle.
