Carnatic-Bollywood Progression Project Funding The Bollywood Brass Band has been awarded a project grant from Arts Council England National Lottery Funding which will enable them to develop the work of the Bollywood Brass Academy. The ‘Carnatic-Bollywood Progression Project’ will extend BBB’s collaboration with Carnatic violinist and educator Jyotsna Srikanth and will see the band working in partnership with music education hubs to support instrumental progression and continuation. The Progression Project will run until summer 2021 and includes supporting the foundation of new secondary school fusion ensembles in Gravesham, Kent, a large scale composition/ performance project with Years 5/6 in Ladywood, Birmingham and workshops and performances with WCET children and teachers in nine schools from hubs across West & South Yorkshire.
