Like many on like chat forums, this one includes a lot of comments based on prejudice, not knowledge....
I have an interest as a supporter and editor of the William Winter Quantocks tune book ( the original manuscript is in the HM library)
I have attended many events, both a mixture of song, music and dance as participant and performer.
As Derek S and others have said, since Paul James became CEO it has broadened its outlook ;there are ambitious plans for expansion.
Let's hope it goes from strength to strength
We need HM in the West Country!
