Nations no longer matter in classical music

In reviewing the most recent San Diego Symphony concert, I made something of a big deal about countries of origin not being important in classical music. While that is true when it comes to performing or listening to classical music, it is not true when it comes to the composition of classical music — at least in the past. Current composers appear to have abandoned notions of a national sound.
