Thread Name: Newcastle Folk Degree - is it any good?
Subject: RE: Newcastle Folk Degree - is it any good?
weelittledrummer was being a little selective in his quoatation when he said "the entrant is crudely asked - do you enjoy playing English/Irish traditional music?

The full context is -

Do you enjoy listening to different types of music?
The most important factor in choosing whether to study music is - are you interested in the subject? Do you enjoy:


performing traditional music from Britain and/or Ireland?
listening to different types of music?
finding out more about musical influences and origins?
going to concerts and other music performances?
understanding how culture and identity relate to music?

If you can answer 'yes' to these, then this could be the degree for you!
