TSW stolen?

[IEDSRI@aol.com]

Ellen van Neck asks about the claim that music from the song "The Sensual
World" was stolen from earlier sources.  Certainly some of the instrumental
music was borrowed or adopted from a Macedonian folk theme, though Kate made
full public disclosure of the fact in a KBC Newsletter, as IED recalls, and
mentioned the Macedonian influence in numerous interviews at the time.   Her
use of the music (like her use of the chorus in "Hello Earth"), however, is
typically novel and original.
