No need to apologise among friends, especially not about things we
care about and take a passionate stand in. I am reading The End of
Early music by Bruce Haynes at the moment. I recognise his described
three ways of making music in many people's reactions on this list:
romantic, modern and HIP. (Which he defines as Historically Inspired,
by the way, in stead of Informed, what I always thought it was
supposed to stand for.) These three philosophies of music making,
combined with not always perfect reasoning, nor writing, and a strong
dose of passion, do not amount to reasons for apologies, they just
amount to lute cafe talk.

David - had concerts with music by Bach, Graupner and a contemporary
piece (ink still wet!) this weekend. The programme was announced in
the news paper as 'music by Loher (the modern guy), Graupner and
others'.
