  • The Lullaby Concerts 2009–2018
    THE LULLABY CONCERTS 2009–2018 AN OVERVIEW OF THE LULLABY CONCERTS Orchestras Live developed the Lullaby concert series in partnership with City of London Sinfonia, as a response to the need for Early Years music making opportunities in rural and culturally undeserved areas in the east of England. Our aim was to develop inspiring, interactive and relevant ways to engage very young children (aged up to 7 years) in first-time experiences of live orchestral music. This included a long-term approach to artistic exploration with our creative partners, responding to the needs and priorities of the communities where the work was based. Evolving from a series of pilot projects started in 2003, the Lullaby concerts reached over 20,000 young children and their families in Suffolk and Essex over 10 years. For many this was their first experience of live orchestral music, and these encounters have often inspired children to take up an instrument or other creative activity, as well as encouraging families to experience more live music together. Each year the concert series, performed by City of London Sinfonia and led by presenter Claire Henry, engaged children through vivid worlds such as animals, forests and science; telling musical stories through everyday themes. After each concert the children in the audience had a chance to try orchestral instruments, supported by professional players and tutors. Over the 10 years the programme involved 727 Early Years practitioners in a CPD training development strand linked to the Lullaby concerts; the Lullaby artistic team shared appropriate skills and ideas which practitioners could take back and use in their nursery settings.

    EIC0396 Written evidence submitted by 245 West End and Orchestral Musicians Submission Authors Please see Annex A. Submission Remit Further to the Treasury Select Committee’s call for evidence this submission attempts to address the following questions in relation to the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme: Where has Government support been too generous and where has it not been generous enough? What gaps in coverage still remain and are changes required to increase their effectiveness? How should the Government prioritise which continuing sectors and groups to support as time goes on and ongoing support is needed? Submission Summary There are substantial gaps in the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme, leaving 1.2 million self-employed workers – around a quarter of the self-employed workforce – without any form of government help, including the country’s leading West End and orchestral musicians who are suffering immense hardship; There is no basis for applying an eligibility past earnings “cap” of £50,000 for self-employed workers, without there being a similar cap for PAYE workers. We submit that it should be removed, tapered or at the very least raised to £200,000 so that it matches what the Chancellor set out when he announced the scheme; Live performance venues were the first businesses to shut their doors and will be the last to open, likely remaining out of bounds for many months given that the performance of live music and the gathering of audiences is the antithesis of social distancing. Therefore we submit that those who work in the music industry should be entitled to some very specific and targeted help so that we avoid decimating the British music industry; A lot of attention has been paid to UK sport but we must be equally vigilant when it comes to protecting our culture.

  • Tri-Borough Executive Decision Report
    Executive Decision Report Decision maker(s) at each authority and date of Cabinet meeting, Cabinet Member meeting or (in the case of individual Cabinet Cabinet Member for Planning Policy, Member decisions) Transport and the Arts, Councillor Tim the earliest date the Coleridge decision will be Date of decision 7 January 2014 taken Forward Plan reference: 04129/13/P/A Report title (decision AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR PROVISION OF ORCHESTRA subject) TO OPERA HOLLAND PARK. Reporting officer Head of Culture, Ian McNicoll Key decision Yes Access to Public information classification 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. The City of London Sinfonia orchestra has been highly acclaimed as part of OHP productions over the years by critics and audience. This paper recommends the Council enters into a one year contract (with the option to extend for a further year) with the City of London Sinfonia as the resident orchestra for Opera Holland Park, 2014 at an annual fee of £340,000 plus VAT. 1.2. Due to the long-term artistic relationship that has been developed over ten years, as well as knowledge of the industry and the costs of other orchestras, the only provider that could fulfil the engagement, particularly within the existing budgets is the City of London Sinfonia. Therefore, it is proposed to not hold a competition to determine the award of contract in 2014. This is permissible under the Public Contract Regulations 2006 as it is a Part B service. This permits the Council to not hold a competition for the contract due to artistic reasons. However, it is proposed that a full tender exercise is conducted to award the contract in 2015 to demonstrate value for money.
