hen it comes to voting on issues for which there are entirely contradictory
facts and gures and projections being bandied about with utter certainty by
all sides – and when, for instance, there are chores to do, music to listen to
and American courtroom dramas that aren’t going to watch themselves – it can be nice to
just trust the position of a particular politician because they’re the one you’d be most likely
to tolerate at a dinner party. But the EU referendum has created some strange bedfellows:
whether you’d choose to invite David Cameron or Jeremy Corbyn to your soiree, you’d be
pretty surprised if one brought the other along as a surprise guest.
e classical music business has been pretty quiet on the matter, especially considering it
is an industry with a large international dimension. Are we really all neutral on this matter?
If you know where you stand and why, please do send us an email with your thoughts by 16
May so we can feature them in our June issue, ahead of the vote itself.
In May we can look forward to the publication of the white paper which will set out the future
of the BBC. Recent comments by culture minister Ed Vaizey have focused on the commercial
activities of the corporation – BBC Worldwide, its stake in UKTV – rather than its public
service remit in which, we very much hope, classical music is seen to belong. e suggestion is
that the BBC’s commercial activities are muscling out competitors, never mind that it folds the
proceeds back into making programmes rather than to stack gold bullion in an overlord’s island
tax haven. (Although to be fair, its top execs aren’t exactly struggling.)
e white paper is expected to be a blow to BBC bosses who thought they were being
whizz-bang business minded and good value for the licence fee payer, only to nd a
Whittingdale rug-pull has put them in a position where their very success is being used as
proof of their overreach. If the BBC has a big source of income choked o at the same time
as taking over the cost of free licences for over-75s, the question for us is whether the cost-
cutting will make its way to Radio 3, orchestras and Proms, even though that aspect hasn’t
been singled out in white papers and charter reviews.
Finally, we salute the end of the £5 promming ticket. A decade is a long time to keep a ticket
price at, and £6 is still a bargain. But it still feels like the end of an era.
