Music: Leeds – supporting a regionalised music sector and scene

This chapter discusses a range of strategies and initiatives that have been employed across the city of Leeds (UK) with a critical introduction of the ways in which models from other European cities, feedback and opinion from music professionals, consultation from government officials in Leeds and guidance documents from professional bodies and global consultancy agencies have been implemented in the development of the city’s dedicated and independent organisation Music:Leeds. The chapter discusses the strategies that have been implemented to stimulate music activity around Music:Leeds’ three core areas of activity: Creative Development & Business Growth; Placemaking & Tourism; Access to Music and concludes with an assessment of these strategic developments so far.
