What really galls me is when Gramophone reviews "American" works, as if
they had some trace of instinct concerning our idiom.

Seriously, there's nothing unusual about these types of biases.  The US
magazines display a similar bias, and I'm confident that the French,
Italian, etc.  do likewise.  It's natural, and it isn't going to cease.

Besides, if the British don't play up their "own", who will?
