The British Academy of New Music is a
centre of musical excellence and a focal
point for music training in the capital.
Sir George Martin CBE
I would have given my arm to be a student at
somewhere like BANM when I was starting.
Matthew Applegate aka Pixel8
The British Academy of New Music (Higher Education) provides radical music solutions for a post-modern world. The digital revolution has turned the tables on the established music industry. In an age of free downloadable music and global economics, the one constant is the creation of music and the generation of musical skills to empower this expression. BANM’s aim is to celebrate the intrinsic value of music beyond genres and brands, from which will evolve the music of tomorrow.
BANM operates its range of revolutionary courses from London, the UK’s music capital. BANM is a dedicated music centre in East London with 11 rehearsal studios, 2 recording studios, a dance studio and 2 technology suites. It is situated within the Three Mills Island cultural complex, at the heart of the evolving Olympic village. |

Keith Harris pays a visit to BANM
Apprentices and students on the Artist Development programme and Foundation Degree, were visited by music expert Keith Harris. Keith has years of experience including working for Transatlantic Records, EMI Records, with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson and becoming Chairman of PPL. He engaged with the musicians at BANM discussing all aspects of the music industry and offering advice based on his experience. Craig Keane, an Apprentice said it was a ‘very useful opportunity to get solid advice and an informed opinion not only on the issues of copyright and royalties but also practical business sense in the music industry.’
Editor of the NME visits students
Students were visited by Jamie Hodgson, the editor of the NME. Jamie talked to students about a range of topics including future music trends, the continuing dominance of credible pop music in 2009 and the increased presence of women both as artists and in key background roles. Other topics discussed included the NME from a historical perspective and the role of online journalism.
Centre Manager Luke Hannam said that Jamie was extremely complimentary about the quality and diversity of student questions. The NME have since booked seats at the Rich Mix end of year show.
