| Research overview | <p>Among several major projects funded by the UK’s Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the British Academy are‘<a href="http://fass.open.ac.uk/music/project/music-military-culture" target="_blank">Military Sponsorship of Music in Britain in the Nineteenth Century and its Relationship with the Musical Mainstream</a>’. A project that created a greater and more accurate understanding of military music in the period, and to explained its relationship to wider orbits of art and popular music.<a href="http://www.open.ac.uk/Arts/music-military-culture/index.shtml"><u>Further information is available from the project’s website</u></a>. And, the AHRC-funded project,‘Cultures of performance among British brass players 1750-1965’, which traced the elements that contribute to a distinctive style of British brass playing. It looked at the relationships between amateur playing and different types of professional music including jazz, orchestral music and military bands.
