Conversely, in the context of composing and performing, I've often had
to direct dancers. Curiously, dancers don't have a problem with
this, and welcome the input. Arts administrators hate me for
it.
Perhaps practitioners more tolerant of generalists but administrators
prefer specialists? My theory is that generalists are too much of a
threat to fossilised administrative structures.

Bud: please give my regards to Michele. (I sent her a copy of the
CASSIEL CD a few months ago, and she was kind enough to write back
saying she'd received it.)
