I think they should all just suit up in armor and duke it out. The
bagpipes will win, but they win anyway.
maybe not all, yes, the highland pipes and the zampogna have a decided
advantage, but there are pipes fit for indoor ocasions.
Even better--lutes, harps and viols should
Again agree, but why there are no lute recitals, presentations,
masterclasses at Greenwich? We know there were some in past, so why not
this year?
well, who is to give the master class(s)? who will play the recital?

My understanding is that the exhibition organisers' policy is, as far
as possible, to use performers from Trinity College of Music, where the

Unfortunatly, there are some harsh economic realities involved in renting
a table at events like the BEMF. You have to man the table, staff doing
