  • A Place for Music: John Nash, Regent Street and the Philharmonic Society of London Leanne Langley
    A Place for Music: John Nash, Regent Street and the Philharmonic Society of London Leanne Langley On 6 February 1813 a bold and imaginative group of music professionals, thirty in number, established the Philharmonic Society of London. Many had competed directly against each other in the heady commercial environment of late eighteenth-century London – setting up orchestras, promoting concerts, performing and publishing music, selling instruments, teaching. Their avowed aim in the new century, radical enough, was to collaborate rather than compete, creating one select organization with an instrumental focus, self-governing and self- financed, that would put love of music above individual gain. Among their remarkable early rules were these: that low and high sectional positions be of equal rank in their orchestra and shared by rotation, that no Society member be paid for playing at the group’s concerts, that large musical works featuring a single soloist be forbidden at the concerts, and that the Soci- ety’s managers be democratically elected every year. Even the group’s chosen name stressed devotion to a harmonious body, coining an English usage – phil-harmonic – that would later mean simply ‘orchestra’ the world over. At the start it was agreed that the Society’s chief vehicle should be a single series of eight public instrumental concerts of the highest quality, mounted during the London season, February or March to June, each year. By cooperation among their fee-paying members, they hoped to achieve not only exciting performances but, crucially, artistic continuity and a steady momentum for fine music that had been impossible before, notably in the era of the high-profile Professional Concert of 1785-93 and rival Salomon-Haydn Concert of 1791-2, 1794 and Opera Concert of 1795.

  • LONDON Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    LONDON Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | London | 2019 0 For decades London has led the way in terms of innovation, fashion and retail trends. It is the focal location for new retailers seeking representation in the United Kingdom. London plays a key role on the regional, national and international stage. It is a top target destination for international retailers, and has attracted a greater number of international brands than any other city globally. Demand among international retailers remains strong with high profile deals by the likes of Microsoft, Samsung, Peloton, Gentle Monster and Free People. For those adopting a flagship store only strategy, London gives access to the UK market and is also seen as the springboard for store expansion to the rest of Europe. One of the trends to have emerged is the number of retailers upsizing flagship stores in London; these have included Adidas, Asics, Alexander McQueen, Hermès and Next. Another developing trend is the growing number of food markets. Openings planned include Eataly in City of London, Kerb in Seven Dials and Market Halls on Oxford Street. London is the home to 8.85 million people and hosting over 26 million visitors annually, contributing more than £11.2 billion to the local economy.

  • Regent Street, London
    Regent Street, London 7UHQWRQ$YHQXH)UHQFKWRZQ1-7HO )D[ Regent Street, London Regent Street proposal, 1813 Lighting Design: Tony Rimmer, Studio 29, London Photographer: Chris Knox As one of the main shopping streets in central London, Regent Street was completed in 1825 to the original plans by the architect John Nash. It was designed to bring order to London’s medieval street pattern. Regent Street consists of 20 building blocks each with Portland stone façades and cornice heights that are all the same level. Extensive rebuilding between 1895 and 1927 changed the original design but preserved the unifying character of the architecture. Today Regent Street is once again one of London’s prime shopping and tourist destinations attracting over 7.5 million visitors a year. The lighting scheme is part of Regent Street Vision, a transformation project for the entire street appearance, initiated by its owner The Crown Estate. Over the past 20 years lighting designer Tony Rimmer was responsible for the conception and execution of the façade lighting. He created an overall scheme that preserves the stylistic integrity of the listed buildings with their 2 km of street frontage. Superlight Compact floodlights for ceramic metal halide lamps with warm white colour (3000 K) are used for the general façade lighting. Architectural details such as columns and sculptures are highlighted with neutral white colour (4500 K) thus creating contrast and depth. Recently Superlight Compact Nano floodlights with LEDs were integrated, consistent with the existing colour scheme. All floodlights are fitted with plugs so that individual luminaires can be maintained without the need to turn off whole electrical circuits.

  • Reasons-For-Closure-Piccadilly
    This branch is closing – but we're still here to help Our Piccadilly branch is closing on Friday 23 October 2020 Reasons for closure, and alternative ways to bank This branch is closing – but your bank is always open This first booklet will help you understand why we’ve made the decision to close this branch. It also sets out the banking services and support that will be available to you after this branch has closed. In a second booklet, which will be available from the branch prior to it closing or online at home.barclays/ukbranchclosures, we'll share concerns and feedback from the local community. We'll also detail how we are helping people transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. Here are the main reasons why the Piccadilly branch is closing: • The number of transactions has gone down in the previous 24 months, and additionally 94% of our branch customers also use other ways to do their banking such as online and by telephone. • Customers using other ways to do their banking has increased by 13% since 2012. • In the past 12 months, 28% of this branch's customers have been using nearby branches. • We've identified that only 13 customers use this branch exclusively for their banking Proposals to close any branch are made by the Barclays local leadership teams and verified at a national level ahead of any closure announcement. If you have any questions and concerns about these changes then please feel free to get in touch with Matthew Bell, your Market Director for Central London.

  • Following Barbara's Footsteps
    Barbara at Work: The International African Institute I am turning into an anthropologist as I now have a job at the International Institute of African Languages and Cultures, which I like very much. I work for dear Professor Daryll Forde, who has great charm but no manners, and is altogether the kind of person I ought to work for! (AVPE, letter to Henry Harvey, June 1946) ‘Although the Institute was registered as a charity, money was always short, and one of the main savings was on staff salaries. Apart from the typists and the bookkeeper, nearly all the members of staff either had independent means or were married women, supported by their husbands. Barbara’s salary when she first joined the Institute was £5 a week and she was only earning £1,500 a year when she left in 1974. Barbara was fortunate to be able to live with Hilary, who had a good salary from the BBC, and share expenses with her, Hilary providing the little luxuries for them both.’ (ALTA) 1946-53: Seymour House, 17 Waterloo Place, London SW1Y 4AR When Barbara started working at the IAI in February 1946, the Institute was located in an impressive neoclassical building at the corner of Wa- terloo Place and Pall Mall, at the lower end of Regent Street in St James’s. The building, dating from the early 20th century, is Grade II listed, but the interior has been completely remodelled since the 1950s. ‘The Institute was at that time housed in two floors of an office building rather grandly situated in Lower Regent Street.
