Why do you read the silly man ???
I try not to! I just put 'Bantock Proms' into Google after reading Albion's post & the Guardian item was the only 'article' (if that's the right word for it) that came up. Unfortunately,curiosity overcame me! It just is an interesting point in an otherwise uninteresting article. I mean,why now? Of course,you could say,who cares,just enjoy? And,why not?! But it would be interesting to know who is behind this? Is it a fluke? Is it evidence of a shift towards concert programming of composers like Bantock,who have been previously ignored? Are they perhaps testing the water? i.e. If the response is favourable can we expect more? (Or,is it all just a coincidence? Let me see,Brian's Gothic,now Bantock? Interesting that? Hm?!!! ::))
And yes,I'm not too keen on this centenary 'fetish' either......except when it relates to a composer I like!! ;D
