 Performance, Residency & Legacy	Performance: Summary of events, including dates, times, venues, ticketing strategy (free/paid, (un)ticketed), age guidelines (free text OR UKFC categories) etc.	Performances will be related to the PRS New Music Biennial and happening on the same weekend - 30 June to 2 July 2017.  James Redwood will take sections of work created in the residencies and weave them into a single piece to be performed during the festival in a 'supergroup' moment (c. 20 min).

Each residency may seek to have a final celebration, sharing and coming together of participants to showcase the music created in each residency - to be confirmed (budgets and feasibility permitting).

Jason Singh is seeking external funding from ACE to include a 3D ambisonic sound installation as part outcome of his residency, as well as a live performance element.	
 	Residency: What opps will be created for our education programme? How will the project build new audiences through engagement? Note #s, types & duration of participation opps.	Minute of Listening software and 2 sound packs will be distributed to all Hull Primary schools, distributed through Hull 2017 Education programme.

Communities groups and target areas have been identified in consultation with James McGuire, taking into account areas of low audience engagement, and areas not served by other engagement initiatives for Hull 2017.	
 	Legacy: What is built into the core project that will ensure legacy?	Skills development - for students and local musicians involved in the CPD programme.

There is an expectation that students will continue to work with groups developed during the residencies, between July 2017 and March 2018, with work continuing to be developed co-ordinated by James Redwood.	
 Project Management	What is the model for delivering this project? eg we will employ a creative team, we will outsource to an agency, we are contributing funding but no other resource…	Project is produced by Jenny Harris employed directly by PRS working as Freelance Project Director.
Assistant Producer Clare Drury (employed by Hull2017) will undertake the role of local Project Manager.

The Project Director will work closely with the Local Project Coordinator in Hull. The working relationship between these two posts is crucial to the success of the programme and a strong level of understanding has been created. 

The Project Co-ordinator will be line managed by Sam Hunt, Exec Producer of Hull 2017.  The Project Coordinator’s responsibilities will be as follows:
• Responsible for on the ground relationships with each host community for composers
• Manage logistics of each of the residencies including planning for specific participant needs, booking spaces, resources and professional musicians involved in the delivery
• Keeps regular contact between CoC and NMB project
• Recruitment of participants and liaison with participants
• Works with Hull’s Music Producing team to ensure successful delivery of performances in 2017
• Delivery of final performances for the culmination of the residency in the legacy year 2018 
• Pending involvement of HEI placements, supports any internships associated with the project
• Reports to: Project Director on NMB residencies (and has daily support within the CoC team)

The combination of these two posts, with regular meetings by (phone/skype) feeding into a Steering Group on a regular basis. The Project Director will visit Hull regularly. 

The PRSF Project Manager will ensure, with the Project Director, that the residencies and Minute of Listening are factored into the communications strategy for the New Music Biennial and that their outcomes are presented as part of the NMB weekend in 2017. 

PRSF will also ensure communications between the Project Director and Southbank Centre to ensure appropriate programming in London of works/performances emerging from residencies and will also report into the main New Music Biennial Steering Group and PRSF Board.

The SAM coordinator will work with London and Hull-based team as follows: 

• Working with the Project Director, to oversee the creation of the bespoke Minute of Listening soundpack comprising music from the commissioned composers. This area will include sourcing the minutes of music, collecting information and images from the composers and – once the soundpack has been created – proofing and testing it in advance of its launch.

• Working with the local project co-ordinator, Hull2017 Education Team, and Project Director to scope out local priorities and target local schools to be involved in the pilot, in consultation and collaboration with the local music hub and other stakeholders.  This will be through a combination of attendance at the main steering group, local meetings and further communications as appropriate.  SAM would then work with this constituency further to roll out the new, bespoke version to all 50 Hull primary schools.

• Agreeing and refining the evaluation questions relevant to MoL in collaboration with Elizabeth Dobson and the steering group, and liaising with the local project coordinator to facilitate her being able to access groups relevant to her research (schools, pupils, teachers and communities hosting the composer residencies).	
 	How will delivery partners be identified and procured? Refer to the procurement flowchart and note below the agreed process (A–G) for each contract.	...	
 	Who are the delivery partners? (Contact & organisation name, contract status for each)	...	
 	Volunteer management: What is your expectation of volunteer requirements? (Numbers, roles, responsibilities, duration / period required)	Volunteers would be required to assist with artist liaison, in practical support for composer workshops within communities.

In addition there are some opportunities for some general administrative support .e.g. identifying and booking venues for rehearsals, helping schedule dates for sessions etc.
