  • Tickets for Troops Annual Review 2016
    TICKETS FOR TROOPS ANNUAL REVIEW 2016 The Sun Military Awards Nominees at Number 10 Downing Street: Tickets For Troops was nominated for ‘Support to Armed Forces’ FOREWORD Thanks to the tremendous philanthropy of our supporters and donors from the nation’s live sports and events industry, 2016 was another active year for Tickets For Troops. We worked closely with hundreds of ticketing professionals, agents, box offices, promoters, clubs, teams and many more groups to ensure our servicemen and women continued to enjoy the delights of the sporting, musical, theatrical and entertainment world. This wonderful generosity combined with some beavering away in the Tickets For Troops office ensured that we were able to distribute 152,652 complimentary tickets for 6,291 events to our military members. Half way through the year, we were delighted to welcome on board a new team of regional volunteers known as ambassadors who are responsible for helping to increase the number of donors in their respective regions. The volunteer opportunity attracted a large number of applications from all around the country and the overall standard was exceptionally high. It was humbling for the team to see how many people from within the forces community wanted to give something back to Tickets For Troops. The regional ambassadors are being managed by our newest employee Elisabeth Roberts - recruited on a part-time basis thanks to the Armed Forces Covenant Fund grant. We were sad to lose Anastasia Baker in October, she was a superb asset to the team with her excellent customer service manner and speedy ticket packaging skills - we wish her well for the future.

    Onda de Ritmo Aprendizagem não-formal no contexto de educação em Música Popular Ronald David McLeod Goodman Tese apresentada à Universidade de Évora para obtenção do Grau de Doutor em Música e Musicologia Especialidade: Musicologia ORIENTADOR: Prof. Doutor Eduardo Lopes Nome do Professor ÉVORA, Agosto 2019 INSTITUTO DE INVESTIGAÇÃO E FORMAÇÃO AVANÇADA Júri Presidente: Doutor Benoît Gibson, Professor Associado da Universidade de Évora, por delegação do Instituto de Investigação e Formação Avançada; Doutor Eduardo Lopes, Professor Associado com Agregação da Universidade de Évora; (Orientador) Doutor António Ângelo Vasconcelos, Professor Adjunto do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal; Doutor Mário Marques, Professor Auxiliar da Universidade de Évora; Doutora Noemy Berbel Gómez, Professora Contratada da Universidad de las Islas Baleares. Wave of Rhythm: Non-formal Learning in a Popular Music Education Context “…Out of the regular succession of measured beats rises the wave; the prototype of rhythm grows from the seed of meter….” “…Da sucessão regular das pulsações métricas a onda surge; a génese de ritmo cresce da semente da métrica….” (Zuckerkandl, 1973, 170) Abstract Non-formal music learning has burgeoned over the last ten years particularly in UK secondary schools and in the Netherlands, where professional performers and community musicians have brought musical leadership skills into the formal education environment. The rationale for this PhD thesis came from the lack of research into non-formal learning of musical rhythm in a formal education context. As its main aim, this study situated in the context of popular music courses at a Scottish college, investigated the benefits of non-formal learning of rhythm for enhancing formal instrumental learning.

    PERFORMANCE AGAINST PUBLIC COMMITMENTS 2011/12 Contents S1 Ofcom and BBC Trust responsibilities S2 Ofcom Tier 2 quotas S3 Performance against Statements of Programme Policy 2011/12 S20 Access services S21 Window of Creative Competition (WoCC) 1 – OFCOM AND BBC TRUST’S RESPONSIBILITIES Under the terms of the BBC’s Royal Charter, the Agreement, and the Communications Act 2003 (‘the Act’), some areas of the BBC’s activity are regulated by Ofcom, some by the BBC Trust, and some by both together. A Memorandum of Understanding was agreed in March 2007 to clarify the respective roles and responsibilities of the Trust and Ofcom, and the key points are summarised below: Programme standards The BBC Executive is accountable to the BBC Trust for accuracy and impartiality of content; Ofcom sets certain programme standards. Both have duties to consider complaints. Quotas and codes News and current affairs The BBC Trust sets quotas for news and current affairs on BBC One and BBC Two, consulting Ofcom (for agreement in some cases) before imposing these requirements. Original productions The BBC Executive and Ofcom must agree an appropriate proportion of programming to be original productions. Nations and Regions programming The BBC Trust sets quotas for programmes from the Nations and Regions, consulting Ofcom (for agreement in some cases) before imposing these requirements. Programmes made outside London The BBC Executive and Ofcom must agree a suitable proportion of programming to be made in the UK outside the M25 area. Independent production The BBC Trust requires the BBC to follow a code of practice for commissioning independent productions, and reviews delivery against the Window of Creative Competition (WoCC), within which in-house and independent producers can compete for commissions.
