高一英语教案:Unit5 The British Isles(备课资料)(2)


    2. Broadcasting
    BBC radio and television and the independent companies broadcast a variety of drama, opera, ballet and music, as well as general arts magazine programmes and documentaries. These have won many international awards at international television festivals. In- dependent television companies also make grants for arts promotion in their regions.
    Broadcasting is a major medium for making the arts available to the public and is a crucial source of work for actors, musicians, writers, composers, technicians and others in the arts world. It has created its own forms--nothing like arts documentaries or drama series, for instance, exists in any other medium. Broadcasters commission and produce a vast quantity of new work. Television and radio provide critical debate, information and education about the arts.
    The BBC has five orchestras, which employ many of Britain's full-time professional musicians. Each week it broadcasts about 150 hours of classical and other music (both live and recorded)on its Radio 3 (FM)channel. BBC Radio 1 (FM)broadcasts rock and pop music, along with a range of other program- ming,24 hours a day, and a large part of the output of BBC Radio 2 (FM)is popular and light music. There are at present two national commercial radio stations which broadcast music:
    · Classic FM, which broadcasts mainly classical music;and
    ·Virgin 1215,which plays broad-based rock music.
    Much of the output of Britain's local radio stations consists of popular and light music,
    The BBC regularly commissions new music, particularly by British composers, and sponsors concerts, competitions and festivals. Each summer it presents and broadcasts the BBC Promenade Concerts(the‘ Proms'), the world's largest music festival, at the Royal Albert Hall. (责任编辑:admin)
