Subject: RE: FDDSS New Chief Exec.
While Katy clearly has a lot of experience in contemporary dance, the point is that she is a highly experienced Arts Manager. The fact that she doesn't come from a specific folk artform bias (what Rambert do is about as far from morris or ceilidh as it's possible to get) means there's no personal agenda.

As someone primarily interested in music and song I am not remotely concerned that her previous dance experience will be an issue. She has substantial experience in certain key strategic areas which are essential to the society's growth and development in the coming years - this is much more important than whether she likes dance or song or even melodeon playing best.
