Berklee Bluegrass in International Herald Tribune

We posted last week about an article in The Boston Globe on Berklee College Of Music’s embrace of traditional string instruments as a principal for study at the school.

We are very pleased to note that this Globe article has been picked up by The International Herald Tribune, perhaps the most prominent English language newspaper outside the US, where the story is sure to get far wider play.

The article has also been the topic of discussion on some popular bulletin board sites, like Banjo Hangout and Mandolin Cafe.
