Thread Name: Traditional?
Subject: RE: Traditional?
"The only Tradition that matters is the one that began when human beings first started making & singing songs. This tradition is alive and well 50,000 years down the line; this tradition is true Folk Music; and, it would seem, it is this tradition that is represented by the International Council of Traditional Music (formerly the International Folk Music Council) the aims which are to further the study, practice, documentation, preservation and dissemination of traditional music, including folk, popular, classical and urban music, and dance of all countries.

So, again, yes; a thousand times yes."


Cripes! Let's put SoP in charge at Cecil Sharply House, IMMEDIATELY! The place may start to liven up a bit then. :0)
