The
Arts on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Television
Franny
Moyle, Commissioner, Arts & Culture, ´óÏó´«Ã½ Television:
"The
´óÏó´«Ã½ is committed to broadcasting the best in arts and cultural programming
from a wide range of perspectives and for a diverse audience.
"As
life in Britain changes, and as the television landscape changes,
the ´óÏó´«Ã½ wants to reinvigorate cultural programming, employing new
and original thinking and innovative programme making techniques.
"The
portfolio of ´óÏó´«Ã½ television channels – ´óÏó´«Ã½ ONE, TWO, THREE
and FOUR – creates new and exciting opportunities for arts
programming across all networks.
"Last
year the two-part Arena on Harold Pinter for ´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO was accompanied
by a season of Pinter plays on ´óÏó´«Ã½ FOUR.
"The
forthcoming three-part series on Mozart fronted by Charles Hazlewood
for ´óÏó´«Ã½ TWO will be accompanied by a series of Mozart concerts on
´óÏó´«Ã½ FOUR. Look
out for more seasons in future months and years.
"The
´óÏó´«Ã½ is also developing its relationships with major artistic institutions
in the UK – from the National Gallery and Tate to the Royal
Opera House and West End theatre.
"Working
hand in hand with these organisations creates more access for viewers
to performances, events and talent.
"As
well as working with other organisations, the ´óÏó´«Ã½ makes its own
mark on cultural life, ranging from its support of five orchestras
and its staging of the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Proms to commissioning original work
– opera, classical music and jazz.
"Here
is an overview of what arts and cultural programming means for each
of the television channels and a flavour of just some of the arts
and music output for 2003 and beyond."
