UK Budget 2015: When is an orchestra not an orchestra?

Orchestras in the UK are going to get a tax cut from April 2016. I’m sure when George Osborne first decided to include that particular pledge in today’s Budget, he was quite pleased with himself. It sounds like a sure-fire winner, doesn’t it? The classical music equivalent of knocking a penny off the price of a pint of beer. Who could possibly oppose it?
