Music thrives in an environment where norms are questioned and tradition is challenged and the Battle of Ideas programme this year offers the opportunity to talk about big ideas with leading thinkers and opinion formers. The Royal College of Music is delighted to be involved with the 2008 Battle of Ideas and looks forward to making a contribution to this important event. - Susan Sturrock, Director of Communications, Royal College of Music |

"The 2006 Battle of Ideas did what it said on the tin: prejudices were punctured, common wisdom was questioned and original thinking honoured. The saying was coined in Texas, but I suggest that the Battle of Ideas adopts it as the conference motto: ‘sacred cows make the best burgers."
George Brock, Saturday Editor, The Times
