In my local folk club people play English music, scottish music, Irish, American and Australian musics. Within the local area, however, there is a strong Italian and Ukranian community and very large Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities. Why are their traditional musics not represented in our club, and generally on the folk scene as a whole. Is it purely because of the English language thing, or are some links more important to 'our' heritage than others? Food wise we are much more likely to eat a curry than go for an Austrailian, why are we not as accepting with our musical tastes?
