Liverpool and its Music Industry
Liverpool has been designated as a UNESCO City of Music for nearly a decade and has one of the most thriving cultural industries of the world. This module will introduce some of the key ways in which Liverpool’s music industry operates in the city region, and how artists, venues, and promotors create and sustain their energy and activities. Students will learn what ‘music industry’ means for the modern city, how a local music economy functions and how it promotes its music to the world. A walking tour will provide a real-world introduction to Liverpool’s music industry, such as Philharmonic Hall, the Cavern Club, and grass roots venues.
