New Music Plus… Impact for Host Organisations

As a result of New Music Plus… most organisations have retained the music programme set up in collaboration with their partner event producer, despite cuts to programming budgets. Their music events have become more ambitious qnsbetter integrated into the host organisation’s programmes.

“The timing of NMP for us was great – we were entering a financially difficult period and NMP added strength and depth to our programming, when our previous reaction would have been to let go of music and focus on our core programme.” NMP…NW host organisation

“…we feel empowered and educated through NMP…It’s enabled us to take more risks with programming decisions.” NMP…London host organisation

All host organisations now plan to do more work with event producers and have become better equipped to do it. This has led to an increase in audience numbers – and new attenders – for organisations. Music is now a bigger part of host organisations’ strategic planning.
 
“That we were able to tap into networks of local producers to reach new audiences made the whole network of NMP valuable to us.” NMP…NW host organisation

“NMP gave us a whole year of thinking how music could be integrated into the whole of our programming.  Now it’s part of almost every public event and a key part of our future thinking.” NMP…NW host organisation
