Bbc Radio 3 0

Posted on December 06, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

History

Radio 3 is the successor station to the Third Programme which was originally launched on 29 September 1946. The name changed on 30 September 1967 when the BBC launched its first pop music station, Radio 1. The three other national radio channels were then renamed Radio 2, (formerly the Light Programme), Radio 3 and Radio 4, (formerly the Home Service). Radio 3 took over the service which had been known under the umbrella title of the Third Network and which included on the same frequency the Third Programme itself, the Music Programme and various sports and adult education programmes. All the component programmes, including the Third Programme, kept their separate identities within Radio 3 until 4 April 1970, when there was further reorganisation following publication of the BBC document Broadcasting in the Seventies.

Broadcasting in the Seventies

In July 1969, the BBC published the document Broadcasting in the Seventies, later described by a senior BBC executive, Jenny Abramsky, Head of Radio and Music, as “the most controversial document ever produced by radio”. Prompted partly by the problem of rising costs, one of its main thrusts was the move towards “generic” stations, each catering for a defined audience. One early option under consideration was the reduction of the four radio networks to three, and “Day-time serious music would be the casualty”. Radio 1, Radio 2 and Radio 4 would broadcast during the day time, while in the evening Radios 1 and 2 would merge and Radio 3 would broadcast on the vacated frequency. Rumours were circulating that Radio 3 would be abolished altogether, with The Guardian stating that there was a strong “statistical case” against the station. However, the Director-General, Charles Curran, publicly denied this as “quite contradictory to the aim of the BBC, which is to provide a comprehensive radio service”. Curran had earlier dismissed

Music Matters – A Window Into The Asian Music Market 16

Posted on November 27, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

I’ve been a regular to several of the major worldwide music conferences over the years, from MIDEM (Cannes) and Popkomm (Berlin) to Canadian Music Week (Toronto). These have not only been a great opportunity to meet and do business with companies in major Western markets, but to also gain a true perspective on the challenges and opportunities specific to those markets. So, it was with quite some excitement that I made my way to Hong Kong for my first trip to Asia, and the 4th edition of Music Matters at the Grand Hyatt from June 2-4 ( http://www.musicmatters.asia ).

From the start, it was clear that Music Matters has a distinctly different feel from most other conferences, more of what I’d call a ‘family affair’. Unlike other conferences that offer a plethora of simultaneous, often lightly attended, Music Matters sets a unified program followed by all delegates. The message is clear: If you want to understand the Asian market, here is the information you will need. And whereas the other conferences make participants available to facilitate scheduling meetings in advance, Music Matters takes a completely opposite approach. “We want a free-flowing networking event where everyone has access to everyone else in a open format,” explained Commercial Director Stan Ruza.

While I was initially skeptical that this would work, it ended up being a nice and productive change, especially for someone looking to build up a broad base of contacts in Asia. I left with as many contacts as I do from other conferences, even though it was much smaller — composed mostly of decision makers from all the major Asian markets: from Tokyo to Mumbai, Sidney to Kuala Lumpur.

While I learned a lot about the Asian market in those 2 days, the most surprising “revelation” was actually a question: when will the Japanese music market surpass the US for the #1 position? More shocking were the estimates ranging from only 5-10
