Thank you David Pollock, for making me cry this morning. I was discussing with Ivor Bolton the news that Germanys Orchestral Musical Culture was granted intangible cultural monument status (or words to that effect) by UNESCO. I think this puts it on a par with many folk traditions that are at risk of being erased or, at least, mothballed. Could not the same status be argued for, fought for, in defence of the British Choral Tradition? And how many Anglican priests and laity would still wish to destroy it, in an act akin to the Puritan Vandalism and Whitewashing of the Civil War and Interregnum?
