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.

Is It Just the Music? Towards an Understanding of Festival-Goers and Their Experience at UK Music Festivals
Is it just the Music? Towards an Understanding of Festival-goers and their Experience at UK Music Festivals by Alyssa Eve Brown PGCert, BA (Hons), FHEA A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire April 2019 i STUDENT DECLARATION FORM Concurrent registration for two or more academic awards I declare that while registered for the research degree, I was with the University’s specific permission, an enrolled student for the following awards: Post Graduate Certificate in Business and Management Research Methods Post Graduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education Material submitted for another award I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work Signature of Candidate ______________________________________________________ Type of Award PhD__________________________________________________ School Lancashire School of Business and Enterprise ii Abstract Festivals are an adventure of the emotional and physical senses and can create unforgettable, exciting and thrilling memories of unfamiliar and unique experiences. With music festivals in particular, there is an additional emphasis on the chance to experience live music by often idolised musicians within a temporary community of shared musical interests. However, whilst a music festival may attract visitors through advertising an attractive and appealing line-up of popular acts, this far from guarantees a happy customer. There are many other elements that contribute to and impact upon the experience of the festival-goer (Morgan, 2008: 83). If these elements are managed well, this can result in benefits for both the consumer, through positive emotional and cognitive experiences, and for the organisation through repeat custom, recommendations and increased sales.

FROM GLYNDEBOURNE to GLASTONBURY: the IMPACT of BRITISH MUSIC FESTIVALS an Arts and Humanities Research Council-Funded Literature Review
FROM GLYNDEBOURNE TO GLASTONBURY: THE IMPACT OF BRITISH MUSIC FESTIVALS An Arts and Humanities Research Council-funded literature review ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY This research review, consisting of a 170-entry annotated bibliography, was produced as part of an AHRC Connected Communities programme project entitled ‘The Impact of Festivals’. It supports a report, ‘From Glyndebourne to Glastonbury: The Impact of British Music Festivals’, published by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, launched at Cheltenham Jazz Festival on 29th April 2016. Authors: Dr Emma Webster and Professor George McKay University of East Anglia February 2016 Author: AB Associates Ltd Year: 2003 Title: Social and Economic Impact Assessment of Shetland Music Reference Type: Report Location: Publisher: Scalloway: AB Associates Ltd Number of Pages/Page numbers: 104 Keywords: Shetland, economic impact, social impact, income, expenditure, tourism, employment, volunteers, folk music, SWOT URL: http://www.shetlandarts.org/images/2009/06/Social-and-Economic-Impact-Assesment- of-Shetland-Music-2003.pdf Date accessed: 17-Dec-15 Abstract: The main purpose of the study is to provide baseline data on the scale and nature of the music industry in 2002, to assess its economic and social impact, and to identify some of the key issues and opportunities facing the industry. Research Notes: The report estimates the economic impact of two Shetland music festivals as being £117,000 in 2002 (the Folk Festival, and Fiddle and Accordion Festival), and the time spent by voluntary helpers amounted to the equivalent of half a job over a year, i.e. 0.5 FTE. In addition, it is estimated that visitors to the Festivals spent a further £69,000 indirectly on accommodation, food, etc.

Barnett SUPA, Department of Physics, University of Strathclyde 4 February 2008 The James Scott Prize Lectureship was established in 1918 in memory of James Scott, a farmer at East Pittendreich, near Brechin, by the Trustees of his Bequest. This prize is awarded quadrennially for a lecture on the fundamental concepts of Natural Philosophy. This year’s award goes to Professor Stephen Barnett FRS FRSE, who is based in the Department of Physics at the University of Strathclyde. Professor Barnett is one of the world’s most eminent scientists in the field of Quantum Optics. A previous winner of the Institute of Physics’ Maxwell Medal, he is perhaps best known for his co-discovery of the Barnett-Pegg phase operator. This established the first formally correct approach for handling both angles and phase as descriptions within quantum systems. Still within quantum physics, Professor Barnett holds a number of patents relating to techniques for writing unbreakable codes. For a subject that is potentially beyond most people’s understanding, Professor Barnett is well known for presenting the counter-commonsense implications of quantum mechanics in an accessible and entertaining way, stripping the subject of its supporting mathematics and leaving only the essence of pure ideas.

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.
