This
is a music society and is a registered member of the National
Federation of Music Societies. It holds meetings at which
there are recitals of Indian classical music and dance and
performing opportunities for students and amateurs. Its
members are making links with other community groups with
the aim of having other cultures represented in their programming
and among its membership.
This
is a competitive festival and is a registered member of
the British Federation of Festivals for Music, Dance and
Speech. For logistical reasons so far the festival has been
a two-day event catering for approximately 150 competitors
in sections for North and South Indian music and dance styles.
The festival was conceived as a multicultural event and
is developing a strategy to target other music and dance
forms that are a feature of London and the UK today.

PROMOTIONS
Visiting

and amateur artists who have excelled in Sangit Examinations
or in Sampoorna Sangeet Mela, are promoted through concerts
and net-working.
Sangit
Examinations administers the examinations for three awarding
bodies in several centres in the UK and Europe. The examination
board assists in strengthening cultural links with different
countries such as Norway, Sweden, Germany, Canada, USA and
India.
Sangit
Examinations provides children and adults of all ages who
are pursuing studies in music or dance in the private or
public sectors with access to accredited qualifications.
Between 300 and 600 candidates appear every year with many
more students having their training guided by our syllabuses.
These qualifications have great significance for students;
for example they are recognised for eligibility for music
places at schools such as Mill Hill County High School,
and, Watford Grammar School for Boys and for Girls.
An
association with Trinity College London is currently being
forged to ensure improvement and innovation for the benefit
of candidates, teachers and partner institutions.
FUTURE
WORK
One
of the main objectives of PRSSV at present is to have a
building-based focal point for its activities. The projects
it currently runs provide a strong foundation on which to
establish and run a centre, and to build its future work.
Future
activities of PRSSV will focus on the development of:
- programmes
and services in the cultures of the Caribbean in order
to foster excellence in traditional forms as well as in
cross cultural activities;
- resource
materials in the form of textbooks, graded listening etc.
for students of non-western musical instruments, singing
and dancing;
- distance
learning programmes including on-line learning; and
- multi-media
projects.
