  In this contribution we briefly review some of the current issues and
promises for the future by asteroseismology. We are entering a new phase in
this field driven by the wealth of data that has been collected and data that
will soon be available for asteroseismology across the HR Diagram. Major
difficulties in the descriptions of stellar interiors that arose in the second
half of the 20th century may now be in part addressed and solved (this is the
expectation!) by asteroseismology with unprecedented precision. In this
contribution we list some of the key open questions in stellar physics, the
seismic data we expect to collect in the near future, and some techniques that
will provide the tools to connect data and models.
