How to you catch the wind?

How do you bottle the seashore?

If every subscriber to Mudcat was asked to learn and perform the same folk song for a grand experiement, I'd guess the range and quality of the arrangement, interpretation and performance of the song would be significantly different in the majority of cases.

In some areas of life standards are vital. In creative areas they are subjective.

I think it would be a good idea if everyone did more singing, playing and promoting of their own activities rather than worrying overmuch about the activities of others.
