<u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">The meeting chamber of the Diputación Provincial in Badajoz located in Obispo Juan de Ribera Street will be the venue where the jury's verdict concerning the awards of the VIIth edition of the Amadeus Contest of Choral Composition will be made public onl 19th of June at 21:30. The event will be part of a show including a concert performed by the mixed staff of Coro Amadeus from Puebla de la Calzada directed by Alonso Gómez Gallego. Both the entries shorlisted by the VIIth CIACC and the winners of the International Amadeus Award of Choral Composition and the Best Work with an Extremenian Origin Award (to the best composition-harmony based on a text or melody connected to Extremadura) will be revealed. These prizes will be awarded in each of the modalities (mixed and single voice).<u></u><u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">Ninety-six works have entered the VIIth edition of the CIACC. They have been sent from eighteen different countries in total. No wonder, in spite of being one of the contest with a smallest money prize for the winners, at the present moment, it has stored over 500 digital titles since its start, adding up to 21 published works and 44 premiers in the USA, Venezuela, the Netherlands, Argentina, Mexico...; to which France will be shortly added, as the premier of Jean Christophe Rosaz's"Diligam Te Domine" is being performed there by the Choeur d´Enfants d´lle de France & Jeune Choeur d´lle de France, directed by F. Bardot at St. François de Sales Church in París on June 24th. <u></u><u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">For such a special event, the group has made up a programme which will include, as usual in the last years, works from previous editions or composed by authors related to the CIACC. Compositions by writers like Miguel Astor, Carles Prats, Rubén García o Alejandro Yagüe will be enjoyed at the gala. Besides, the mixed group will offer their guests the premier of "Agnus Dei" Francisco José Carbonell Matarredona, a composer from Valencia, living in the USA.<u></u><u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p> </div> <div> <p class="MsoNormal">The present edition of the CIACC has been sporsored by the Consejería de Educación y Cultura of Gobierno de Extremadura through the CEMART, as well as the Local Council of Puebla de la Calzada.

<br>one of ISMEs INAs (Affiliated National Organization) organized a
<br>Regional Conference, themed "Music Culture and Music Education across
<br>the Silk Road." Held in İstanbul the overall aim of the event was
<br>establishing a "Union of Eurasia Music Educators." MÜZEDs ambition was
<br>to find a catalyst that might lead to an increased collaboration
<br>between professional organizations and peoples from within Turkey and
<br>their neighboring countries.
<br>
<br>MÜZED hosted a rich event featuring keynotes, paper presentations, a
<br>small market place, and some stunning music making. I was well looked
<br>after by Uğur Alpagut, MÜZED Secretary of Foreign Affairs and Rafik
<br>Saydam who is the current president of MÜZED.
<br>
<br>As the representative of ISME I gave one of the keynotes speeches
<br>entitled "Community Music as Cultural Capital: Non-formal Music
<br>Experiences and Young People" which also included an outline of the
<br>societies mission and the how ISME might aid MÜZED in their goals.
<br>Ekin Çorakli, a young music educator and pianist is currently working
<br>on a translation of the presentation in order to continue the
<br>dialogue. Other keynotes included ISME members David Elliott and

<br>The series is dedicated to unjustly neglected works, which are no
<br>longer available or were never available before. It is a direct and
<br>idealistic response to the fact, that the repertoire of classical
<br>music is shrinking every day and many little known pieces are
<br>vanishing into oblivion. We hope that our scores will help this music
<br>revive and survive. If you want to know more about our activity,
<br>please visit our website <a href="http://www.musikmph.de">www.musikmph.de</a>. There you find the catalogue
<br>of our study scores which will allow a survey of the fundamental idea
<br>of our publication work.

Over a four year period, Birmingham City University will be undertaking a rigorous study of the ten projects to evaluate the educational, musical and other outcomes of these new models of partnerships for the pupils involved.

Narrowing the gap between the attainment of children in care and all young people is a high priority for Derbyshire.

We look forward to the outcome of this action research project with great excitement as it is the first time such a rigorous study of combined approaches between schools and music providers, who normally work in out-of-school settings, has been done.

Specially trained professional musicians and producers will support patients aged 13 - 18 with song writing and music production as part of the hospitals' structured therapeutic timetables. The activities are designed to contribute to the young peoples' wellbeing and recovery through developing creative, communication, social and technical skills, improving confidence and self-esteem, and opening new pathways to musical opportunities in the community after discharge from hospital.<u></u><u></u></span></p> <p style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Peter Leigh says: </span> <span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">"We are thrilled that Youth Music is supporting this project which will provide positive activities for young people detained in hospital at a pivotal time in their lives. The work will build on a pilot service delivered on boys' and girls' wards in Woking which has already seen improvements in patients' engagement with therapeutic activities and brightened the mood of the wards. Expanding the geographic scope of the project will establish a unique perspective on the impact of music in adolescent in-patient care, and develop a valuable evidence base that can be shared with the health and social care sector."<u></u><u></u></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The 'Musicians in Children's Hospitals' project run by OPUS Music Community Interest Company (CIC), has been awarded a grant of £97,800 to bring weekly music-making to the bedsides of children and young people at Derbyshire, Nottingham and Leicester Children's Hospitals as well as children's wards at Kings Mill Hospital, Mansfield. Previous work by OPUS has demonstrated wide-ranging benefits for the patients, their visitors and staff. Young patients who would otherwise miss out will now gain opportunities for self-expression, autonomy and musical education through regular music-making activity alongside OPUS Musicians.<u></u><u></u></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Nick Cutts, Director of OPUS Music CIC, says: "We are delighted that Youth Music is supporting OPUS' development of our Music in Healthcare practice. We have witnessed the wonderful impacts of music-making in children's hospitals over the past few years, a practice developed through European training partnerships led by the world renowned Musique & Santé in Paris. We are looking forward to the continued exploration of hospitals as collaborative music-making venues, helping children and young people and their families to discover music as a relief from illness and as a long-term activity both during and beyond their hospitalisation."<u></u><u></u></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><b><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#403152">Research indicates significant benefits<u></u><u></u></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Research has shown that music interventions in hospital settings can have significant benefits.

In this round we have announced grants to help female survivors of child trafficking and others who suffer from severe psychiatric illness, along with young people living in rural isolation.

sometimes legislate against the noise of streets arising from musical activity. </span><u></u><u></u></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"" lang="EN-US">
