  • BBC Music Booklet Celebrating 80 Years of Music.Pdf
    Celebrating Years of Music A Serenade to Music “We are the music-makers And we are the dreamers of dreams…” (Arthur William Edgar O’Shaughnessy, Ode) The story of BBC Northern Ireland’s involvement in nurturing and broadcasting local musical talent is still in the making. This exhibition provides a revealing glimpse of work in progress at the BBC’s Community Archive in documenting the programmes and personalities who have brought music in all its different forms to life, and looks at how today’s broadcasters are responding to the musical styles and opportunities of a new century. It celebrates BBC NI’s role in supporting musical diversity and creative excellence and reflects changes in fashion, technology and society across 80 years of local broadcasting. “ Let us celebrate the way we were and the way we live now. Much has been achieved since 2BE’s first faltering (and scarcely heard) musical broadcast in 1924. Innovation has Let us celebrate the ways we will be... been a defining feature of every decade from early radio concerts in regional towns and country halls to the pioneering work of Sean O’Boyle in recording traditional music and Sam Hanna Bell’s 1950s programmes of Belfast’s Let us count the ways to celebrate. street songs.The broadcasts of the BBC Wireless Orchestra and its successors find their contemporary echo in the world-class performances of the Ulster Orchestra and BBC NI’s radio and television schedules continue to Let us celebrate.” reverberate to the diverse sounds of local jazz, traditional and country music, religious services, brass bands, choirs, (Roger McGough - Poems of Celebration) contemporary rock, pop and dance music.

  • 1968 Soit Le Troisième Concours Eurovision Organisé Par La B.B
    Lieu : Royal Albert Hall de Londres Orchestre : Norrie Paramor’s ( Royaume-Uni ). Orchestra. Présentation : Katie Boyle. Date : Samedi 6 Avril. Réalisateur : Stewart Morris. Durée : 1h 37. Bien que 1968 soit le troisième concours Eurovision organisé par la B.B. C., c’est en fait la première fois qu’elle l’accueille après une victoire. Comme en 1960 et 1962 c’est Catherine Boyle qui anime la soirée. Le Royal Albert Hall est aménagé pour la circonstance et c’est à travers une immense réplique du logo étoilé de l’Eurovision que les 17 concurrents pénètrent sur scène. Une caméra placée en coulisses permet de suivre les quelques secondes qui précèdent leur entrée dans la salle. Mais la grande invitée de la soirée est la couleur. Détail curieux, si le spectacle est relayé dans tous les pays d’Europe en couleurs, les britanniques devront se contenter du noir et blanc et attendre la rediffusion du lendemain pour apprécier le concours en polychromie. On s’était bien aperçu dans les dernières années que les tenues des participants se faisaient plus brillantes, les jupes des chanteuses plus courtes, mais ce progrès technique permet de découvrir des roses, des bleus et des jaunes que l’on aurait eu du mal à imaginer. Aurait-on autant apprécié les costumes médiévaux de l’ensemble yougoslave Dubrovacki Trubadori ( recomposé en un duo et trois choristes, le règlement n’autorisant que deux interprètes ) sans la couleur ? Parmi les 65 chansons présentées au comité de sélection français, c’est “La source” qui a été retenue. Le titre, dont le texte est signé Guy Bonnet et Henri Djian et la musique Daniel Faure, avait déjà été présenté en 1967 en sélection française.

  • The Eurovision Years
    THE EUROVISION YEARS The North West’s love affair with the Eurovision Song Contest began in Vienna, Austria, in 1967 when Phil Coulter, with his writing partner Scot Bill Martin, composed Puppet on a String for Sandy Shaw. The song won and the local connection with the contest began. The following year they nearly completed the double when, at the Royal Albert Hall in London, Cliff Richard performed their latest composition Congratulations. Unfortunately, the song came second, but both songs went on to sell millions of records worldwide. In Amsterdam in 1970, a local girl called Rosemary Brown, better known as Dana, won the Eurovision with All Kinds of Everything. The Phil Coulter song was arranged by Phil Coulter and went on to be a number one hit all over Europe. Charlie Sherrard and Josef Locke were two great Irish tenors of their era. Charlie was born and raised in William Street, Sandi Shaw a stone’s throw from Thundering Down, the street where Josef Locke was born and raised as Joseph McLaughlin. Charlie’s son, Sean Sherrard, followed in his father’s footsteps. Sean took the stage name Johnny Logan and in 1980 composer Shay Healey wrote What’s Another Year which Johnny performed in The Hague in the Netherlands. The song went on to win and launched Johnny Logan onto the international music scene. The following year the contest was held in Dublin and the group Sheeba represented Ireland. Local girl Frances Campbell was a member of the all- girl trio. Sheeba came fifth that year, finishing behind Bucks Fizz who won Dana with Making Your Mind Up.
