"Never have there been so many music-making opportunities amongst youngpeople in Lincolnshire! What an amazingsecond year of musical activitiesLincolnshire has enjoyed through thesound52 project - and what a fantasticopportunity for young people and musiciansalike it has been."soundLINCS, the charity and company, wasformed in 1998 to develop musicthroughout Lincolnshire, and initiallycomprised just a single worker coveringwhat is the fourth largest county in England.Although soundLINCS has grown steadily inits own right, the sound52 project has givenit additional opportunities to develop andexpand its range of partners throughout thecounty, whilst identifying and working withover 70 music facilitators and stagingaround 130 music sessions each week.Looking at this evidence, then, some mightsay the company's mission to 'Enhance,Encourage and Enable Through Music' iswell on its way. "Once again this proves that Lincolnshire isa 'doing' county - a 'participatory' county -and this report logs the evidence of that.This is the second year that Lincolnshire hasput its trust and faith into the largest musicproject the people of the county have everseen, and I'm sure everyone will agree that,through sheer hard work and our excellentpartnerships with Lincolnshire CountyCouncil, with the county's seven DistrictCouncils, with Youth Music and with theyoung people themselves, things can onlygo one way. So look out Lincolnshire -things are going to get LOUDER!"

Nikki-Kate HeyesDirector, soundLINCS

"sound52 continues to impact on the lives ofLincolnshire people in a way no other musicproject ever has! Over the past three years,sound52 has ensured that literally thousandsof children, young people and their familieshave had the opportunity to participate in arich, vibrant and eclectic mix of music-making,often their first experience of participating in asustained music project. We have the evidenceto prove that the quality of life for manyparticipants has been improved: in achievingthis, sound52 is broadening the horizons of allthose it works with. "Directly linked to the clear artistic benefits ofsound52 is the initiative's significant economicimpact. Over 70 musicians are regularlyworking with us, ensuring the county'scommunity music infrastructure goes fromstrength to strength. "Influencing the lives of so many Lincolnshirepeople was impossible to imagine when webegan devising the project four years ago. Weare overjoyed to look back at sound52'sachievements, and look forward to the initiative'sambitious plans for the next three years."But enough of statistics! What comes overloud and clear at every sound52 event is theobvious 'fun' - a little word, and one that canget lost within the grand ambitions of largeorganisations, but one that we in Lincolnshireattempt to create whenever possible. Like manyrural counties, Lincolnshire has challenges notexperienced by more metropolitan areas -specifically its sheer size (Lincolnshire has thesame land mass as Northern Ireland) and poortransport infrastructure. This makes it evenmore remarkable that so many children andyoung people are able to access music-makingopportunities on a regular basis."The County Council would like to thank themany sound52 partners - the ExecutiveConsortium, the artists and arts organisationsand the county's local authorities. Together,these partners are ensuring real access toartistic and cultural entitlement."David M LambertArts Development Officer (Strategic)Lincolnshire County Council

"sound52 is part of a network of 24 YouthMusic Action Zones in England and Walesproviding music-making activities to 0-18year olds who mightotherwise not get the chance."Through its work, sound52 is championingthe value of music-making and helping toprove that music has an invaluable part toplay in advancing the educational andsocial development of children and youngpeople."Over 16,000 children and young peopleaged 0-18 have now benefited from asound52 music activity, which is anextraordinary achievement. Alongside this,sound52 has provided training andemployment opportunities to over 70 localmusicians."I had the pleasure of attending theClassicCombo event in Lincoln Cathedral inFebruary 2005, where I witnessed over 100young people from across Lincolnshire givestunning performances of a truly diverserange of music. This is one example of thekind of innovative music-makingopportunities that sound52 provides forchildren and young people in the county."sound52 has gone from strength tostrength since it started in 2002 andYouth Music is delighted to continue tosupport this next exciting phase ofwork."

sound52 was conceived by soundLINCS and Lincolnshire County Council in 2000, quietly developing foreighteen months or so before its launch in August 2002. The first music workshops were delivered in January2003: since then, sound52 has grown into the largest - and loudest - participatory music project Lincolnshirehas ever experienced.Full of energy and life, sound52 music-making is fresh, bold and imaginative, creating connections, formingbonds and breaking down barriers between genres, between communities, between abilities and betweenages. A blueprint, then, for how the future should look for the young people of today.In Round Two, sound52 has been able to build upon the firm foundations laid down in Round One,harnessing the enthusiasm of a team of musicians and extending opportunity, choice and access to musicalactivities for children and young people all over the county. The project now includes work with youngsters inthe 6-11 year age-group, and has expanded its provision for excluded children and groups with additional orspecial needs. In addition, a pioneering commission to fuse rock and classical musical traditions created aunique opportunity for sound52 to engage with young orchestral performers.This report summarises the tremendous achievements of sound52 during Round Two, covering the period April2004 to March 2005. It follows on from the Round One report, which reviewed the formative period fromAugust 2002 to March 2004.

From its inaugural residencies in January 2003, First Notes has continued to grow and develop throughoutRound Two. A team of music facilitators with specialist training in working with pre-school children has nowdelivered a total of over 2,400 music workshops in 340 non-maintained settings across Lincolnshire, workingwith some 7,000 children, plus their carers and practitioners. During Round Two, First Notes adapted its structure to accommodatechanges in the Lincolnshire school year, with each residency nowcomprising six sessions, usually at weekly intervals. Another keydevelopment has been the publication of a comprehensive Resource Pack,drawing exclusively on the First Notes pool of experience, research andideas.In a practical wallet, containing over 200 wipe-clean cards giving detailsof activities, instruments and Foundation Stage curriculum goals, the packis essentially a blueprint for creative music sessions with pre-schoolchildren, and has been published in collaboration with Early YearsCurriculum Advisors, Lincolnshire Pre-School Learning Alliance and theLincolnshire Early Years Development & Childcare Partnership. Each settingis presented with a complimentary copy on the completion of theirresidency: press reviews and user feedback have, however, been sofavourable that the pack is being offered nationally for a nominal charge,with enquiries from pre-schools in both the maintained and non-maintained sectors, independent childcare providers and even interestedparents all over the country.

Also setting a precedent arethe comprehensiveinstrument kits supplied toFirst Notes facilitators.During Round Two, sound52has worked with LincolnshireToy Libraries to source andcatalogue ten sets ofinstruments modeled on theFirst Notes kits, which areavailable for Early Years

settings across the county to borrow. In some casesthis has enabled First Notes settings to continue tobenefit from the programme after completion of theirresidency by borrowing a kit to pursue their music-making activities independently.In another development in Round Two, sound52worked with National Children's Homes to deliverFirst Notes residencies at four settings in an initialpilot project. Recognising the opportunity to developits provision for children with additional needs,sound52 collaborated with NCH to ensure that theresidencies included an element of on-site trainingfor the facilitators involved. Having successfullycompleted the pilot project in April/May 2004, afurther four residencies were provided inJanuary/February 2005.

SECOND SOUNDSLaunched in September 2004, Second Sounds has provided enhancedparticipatory music-making for children in the 6-11 year old age range,working during out-of-school hours in primary schools. Each residencyoffered a series of seven, hour-long sessions, and delivered wide-ranging musical experiences to participants, from African and Bhangradrumming to singing and song-writing.sound52 supported Second Sounds by providing a diversity of colourfulhand-drums and other percussion instruments, plus electronic 'beatboxes' for use by music facilitators employed on the project. Theseresources were augmented by the music facilitators themselves, severalof whom led sessions using their own instruments, such as guitars andportable electronic keyboards.

Second Sounds was developed in partnership with the CfBT LincolnshireSchool Improvement Service, who manage and deliver the highlysuccessful countywide New Opportunites Fund (NOF) arts project. Round Two Second Sounds residencies were provided in two phases.The first was arranged primarily in the Lincolnshire districts of SouthHolland and West Lindsey, whose involvement with the NOF project wascomplete. During the second phase, four additional districts wereinvolved, and included workshops tailored for children with specialneeds.

Contemporary popular music (CPM) sessions remained a HeatUp! cornerstone: however, two additionalstrands were developed to enhance participation by even greater numbers of young people.Junk Percussion, pioneered during Round One, evolved into Junk Groove, an exciting new collaborative artform which fuses the percussive soundworld of junk instruments with original and expressive dancemovements. Developed in collaboration with lincolnshire dance, each Junk Groove workshop was facilitatedby two experienced artists - a musician and a dancer.Another development from Round One was Vocal Production, progressing from the original concept of Vocalsto usher in a more flexible and dynamic approach. Groups were offered access to a range of resources withwhich to enhance their vocal experiences, including beats, loops and accompanists.March 2005 also saw seven HeatUp! bands busily rehearsing for a series of regional gigs scheduled to takeplace during April and May 2005 under the Burn52 banner.

THE PRODUCERSUnder The Producers, two projects came to fruition during Round Two - one inspired by the poetry of Alfred,Lord Tennyson, and the second based on the tragic story of Holocaust victim Anne Frank.In September 2004, The Producers collaborated with the Louth-based Literature Festival 'Wolds Words', in acelebration of Tennyson's life and works. Drawing on Tennyson's poetry for lyrical inspiration, two youngpeople worked alongside a professional music producer to create two original rap tunes. The debutperformance of the tracks took place at the festival, and was also featured at the sound52 ClassicCombo inFebruary 2005.

The second of The Producers projects began in October 2004, when 22 young people and five professionalproducers came together to create tracks based upon the themes and issues evoked by the story of AnneFrank. The entire contingent visited the touring exhibition Anne Frank: A History for Today at Southwell Minsterin Nottinghamshire: they then divided into five smaller groups to spend three days in recording studios,working with the producers to explore the thoughts inspired by the exhibition through musical and lyricalmeans. Between them, the groups produced twelve original tracks, whichwere made available on an interactive CD-Rom: 3,000 copieswere produced and given away at the exhibition, whichattracted over 6,000 visitors when it came to LincolnCathedral in January 2005. The tracks received a secondpublic airing a month later as part of ClassicCombo:having been enhanced and interpreted by a video artist,they formed the basis of an audio-visual presentation toa spellbound audience.

The audience of 600+ wasalso visibly moved by a large-scale a/vpresentation using original compositions inspired bythe Anne Frank story, which had been mixed duringgroup composition, digital production andrecording sessions and then interpreted for the

occasion by a video artist.The second half of theevening was devoted to the premiere of 'Space', aunique cross-genre work especially composed forthe event by three sound52 music facilitators. Inthree contrasting movements, with a closing Coda,

sound52 opened Round Two with a team of 45working music facilitators, all of whom had beenrecruited and inducted during Round One. As aresult of another recruitment drive during August2004, a further 18 joined the team and wereinducted in September 2004. As with those recruitedduring Round One, the new workers brought withthem interests, skills and experiences across all thevarious sound52 strands.A series of six training and sharing days wereorganised during Round Two, five of which werestrand-specific. First Notes, Second Sounds andHeatUp! each had a full day, whilst two days werededicated to Junk Groove. Hosted jointly bysoundLINCS and lincolnshire dance, the Junk Groovetraining days brought both music and dancefacilitators together in order to explore this excitingand innovative art form.The sixth training day encompassed a more generalexperience of participatory music workshops.Managed by More Music Morecambe, the daygenerated highly positive feedback from sound52workshop facilitators across all strands.The project has continued to provide Core Inductionsfor all facilitators, supported by specialist Early YearsInductions for First Notes workers.

SOCIAL &ECONOMIC IMPACTIn total, 73 music facilitators have been inducted into sound52, with contracts for paid work awarded to 63.The volume of work committed to by each facilitator is determined by their own personal decision, allied totheir skills and experience and the demand for soundLINCS services.Facilitators are engaged for between one and eight sessions per week - with each session equivalent to amorning, afternoon or evening. But as sound52 has evolved, so have the work patterns of the musicfacilitation team. Today, it has become the norm for facilitators to lead workshops across several, or even all,of the project's different strands: the result is that music facilitation can now be a viable, full-time career forexperienced musicians in Lincolnshire.In addition, during the course of Round Two, many sound52 facilitators were employed on other music-relatedprojects across the county, including work with Lincolnshire County Council Music Services and the NewOpportunities Fund (NOF) after-school workshops. Further openings for music-based employment are offeredvia soundLINCS projects with Connexions, NACRO, Young Persons Action Group, One Spirit and the LincolnEarly Music festival, amongst many others.The positive effect on the economy of the region has been significant. sound52 has contracted services frompredominantly Lincolnshire-based businesses, consultants and freelance specialists, representing some£132,679 of investment in local commerce. This is equivalent to 64% of the total spend of £207,394 for theproject.The social impact has also been recognised, with the sound52 manifesto ensuring that the project iscommitted to working with groups considered to be disadvantaged or who have restricted access to the arts.Included in this sector are young carers and excluded pupils (HeatUp!) and children with additional or specialeducational needs (First Notes and Second Sounds).Press interest in the project and its wider effect has been considerable: Youth Music and Arts Council Englandpublications and websites, national consumer, education and arts-related magazines, regional periodicals,local newspapers and the broadcast media have all picked up on various sound52 activities and initiatives,ensuring participatory music-making in Lincolnshire has become part of the regional and nationalconsciousness.

Every setting that hosts Second Sounds is requested to complete an evaluation form that grades five aspects of the residency. 29evaluations have been returned. The table below summarises the replies.

The format of these evaluations differs from the standard that has been developed by soundLINCS for sound52. The Second Soundsformat is consistent with the standard developed by CfBT for the NOF project. It was agreed to maintain the NOF style format as theparticipating schools were already familiar with it.
