It was startling when it was new, admittedly, although there are a few other George Pace designs around that are similar in outline (I like his work, generally), but I like it. There are, after all, a number of distinguished modernist cases in great Gothic churches in Europe, to say nothing of the wealth of Baroque cases in Gothic surroundings which should, logically, be just as incongruous. I guess it's all a matter of opinion. I don't like all modern cases, and I do like gothic revival, but I like New College - both the case and the instrument inside it.
