  • Changes in the Teaching of Folk and Traditional Music: Folkworks and Predecessors
    Changes in the Teaching of Folk and Traditional Music: Folkworks and Predecessors Thesis M. Price Submitted in fulfilment of the degree of PhD Newcastle University November 2017 i Abstract Formalised folk music education in Britain has received little academic attention, despite having been an integral part of folk music practice since the early 1900s. This thesis explores the major turns, trends and ideological standpoints that have arisen over more than a century of institutionalised folk music pedagogy. Using historical sources, interviews and observation, the thesis examines the impact of the two main periods of folk revival in the UK, examining the underlying beliefs and ideological agendas of influential figures and organisations, and the legacies and challenges they left for later educators in the field. Beginning with the first revival of the early 1900s, the thesis examines how the initial collaboration and later conflict between music teacher and folk song collector Cecil Sharp, and social worker and missionary Mary Neal, laid down the foundations of folk music education that would stand for half a century. A discussion of the inter-war period follows, tracing the impact of wireless broadcasting technology and competitive music festivals, and the possibilities they presented for both music education and folk music practice. The second, post-war revival’s dominance by a radical leftwing political agenda led to profound changes in pedagogical stance; the rejections of prior practice models are examined with particular regard to new approaches to folk music in schools. Finally, the thesis assesses the ways in which Folkworks and their contemporaries in the late 1980s and onward were able to both adapt and improve upon previous approaches.

  • GARDENING on the BBC SCHEME PAGE 2 | BACK at the BBC GARDENING on the BBC 9 May 1931 Was Arguably the Date on Which the BBC Discovered How to Talk to Its Audience
    The newspaper for retired BBC Pension Scheme members • April 2021 • Issue 2 PROSPERO PENSION GARDENING ON THE BBC SCHEME PAGE 2 | BACK AT THE BBC GARDENING ON THE BBC 9 May 1931 was arguably the date on which the BBC discovered how to talk to its audience. From the BBC’s inception in the 1920s, the idea of the ‘talk’ was one of the Corporation’s regular features. An expert would address the audience, reading formally from a script, but few ‘real’ people ever got behind the microphone. hen, the mould was broken, with the arrival of CH Middleton. Selected from a list of potential Tgardening broadcasters, supplied to the BBC by the Royal Horticultural Society, this gently spoken son of a Northamptonshire gardener threw out broadcasting convention, and dared to speak from notes alone. ‘Mr Middleton’, as he was known on air, got the full support of BBC management, although in the early years he did provide a script as backup. Ultimately, this was seen as unnecessary, when it became clear that Mr Middleton was a broadcasting natural. A memo at the time from Mr Fielden of the BBC General Talks Department is revealing: ‘There really is no need for you to submit a manuscript every time you talk, so long as you have sufficient notes and can extemporize – I would be happy if you would ‘Mr Middleton’ with Elizabeth Cowell. endeavour to tell and not read your garden talks.’ This he did with relish. His first talk set the tone that would become familiar for the next 15 years: This down-to-earth approach lent itself to open approach with his Gardening Club series.

  • School Broadcasting in the United Kingdom: an Exploratory History David Crook )N and History in the United Kingdom, Television for Schools Is 50 Years Old in 2007
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Institute of Education EPrints School Broadcasting in the United Kingdom: An Exploratory History David Crook )n and History In the United Kingdom, television for schools is 50 years old in 2007. The anniversary provides a reason to undertake an exploratory history of school broadcasting, an area that has received very little attention from historians of British education. The first part of this article examines the origins of school radio broadcasting, focusing especially upon the pioneering work of Mary Somerville, who served as the BBC’s first Director of School Broadcasting from 1929 to 1947. It is then argued that school broadcasting had a ‘good war’, enhancing its international reputation and sense of public value between 1939 and 1945. Following the conclusion of hostilities, there were high expectations that television for schools would become quickly established, but financial, technical and other practical impediments delayed the launch of services until 1957. By that time, commercial television had emerged as a rival to the BBC and it was an ITV company, Associated-Rediffusion, rather than the BBC, which won the race to broadcast the first television programmes for schools. Some significant technological and market- led changes since the 1980s are noted, but the conclusion states that the reputation of British school broadcasting remains high at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Introduction One 2007 anniversary that passed largely unnoticed was the half century of television for schools in Britain. At the end of 1956, Associated-Rediffusion, the financially troubled Independent Television (ITV) contractor for London and Southeast England, surprisingly announced plans to launch a school television service the next year.1 Its initial schedule, which ran from Monday, 13 May 1957 until the end of the summer term, comprised one programme per day, broadcast to secondary-age children in London.
