Something Of Value
Excellent article today in the Guardian on-line relating to the idiotic British MEPs who turned their backs on the EU anthem the other day. It almost compensated for the anger and shame I felt at the behaviour of my countrymen. Actually the focus of the piece is on Beethoven's Ninth in itself and its richly symbolic political associations rather than the shabby idiocies of the present. It's good to think the symphony will outlast us all, eh?
