“Classical” examines the relationship between societal classes, and how these relationships shift based on sociopolitical and geopolitical circumstances at any given period in history. Koenig’s lyric borrowing the word “classical” alla classical music, to assert something lasting through enough generations eventually becomes traditional and upheld by later generations still (while doubly relating to class with the playful extension of the word class to classical). The track blends indie rock with elements of jazz. It is co-produced by singer/songwriter Ezra Koenig and producer Ariel Rechtshaid. “Classical" is the third consecutive Vampire Weekend album to include production from Rechtshaid.
