  • The Generations Tunebook Was Born of Necessity During the Course of an Educational Initiative Called, ‘The Generations Project’
    South Riding Folk Arts Network The Generations Tune Book Dance music from three centuries arranged for mixed ensembles compiled and designed by Paul Davenport The Generations Tune Book The Generations Tune Book Dance music from three centuries arranged for mixed ensembles compiled and designed by Paul Davenport South Riding Folk Arts Network © 2005 The Generations Tune Book Introduction The Generations Tunebook was born of necessity during the course of an educational initiative called, ‘The Generations Project’. The project itself was initially, a simple exercise in Citizenship in a large South Yorkshire comprehensive school. The motivation behind this was to place teenagers at the heart of their community. The results of this venture had repercussions which are still being felt in the small mining town of Maltby which lies in the borough of Rotherham, not far from Sheffield. In 2002, the music department at Maltby Comprehensive School in partnership with the South Riding Folk Arts Network set about the task of teaching a group of 13 and 14 years old students the longsword dance. In this undertaking much support and encouragement was given by the national folk organisation, the English Folk Dance & Song Society. A group of students learned the dance whilst others learned to play the tunes to accompany the performance. Financial support from the school’s PTA allowed Head of Art, Liz Davenport, to create the striking costumes worn by the dancers. More support appeared in the form of folk arts development agency Folk South West who generously discounted their ‘College Hornpipe’ tunebook for the project. Players of orchestral instruments suddenly found themselves being extended by the apparently ‘simple’ melodies arranged by Paul Burgess.

  • H&A Eye for An
    Hachette Australia partners with Channel Seven to create two Home and Away novels. PUBLISHER Hachette Australia is thrilled to announce they are working with the Seven Network to publish two Home and Away novels. The launch publication is a Home and Away and Australian first: an ebook published as part of a special TV event. The first book ties into the special TV event, Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye, which launched on Presto on December 9, immediately following the season finale of the regular series on Seven. The Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye TV event is exclusive to Presto and centres on the Braxton family, seeing the return of two much-loved characters, Heath (Dan Ewing) and Bianca (Lisa Gormley) to Summer Bay. Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye, the novel, releases exclusively in ebook in Australia on 16 December with a paperback edition earmarked for 2016. The second – as yet untitled – novel will also be released in 2016. There is already interest in both novels from UK publishers given the UK is Home and Away’s strongest market outside of Australia and New Zealand. Hachette Australia’s Fiction Publisher Rebecca Saunders said the manuscript was under lock and key because it contained explosive material and exclusive scenes that will not be shown on television. Saunders said the books aimed to take readers further into the hearts and minds of the much-loved bad-boy Braxton family. “Home and Away has the country’s most devoted and passionate fans and Home and Away: An Eye for An Eye has been created and produced just for them by Seven Productions.
