The question wasn't "do you think it's wrong" but "is it legal."

In a word, no. In many cases of classical music, the "music" is public domain, but the performance is not. U.S. law says it is theft. Now, whether certain individuals on this board think it "should" be legal is another matter. But the actual legal standing is a matter of fact, not opinion.
