Music Printing
When you pick up a score or song book, have you ever considered the process of reproducing the original, hand written piece into multiple, printed copies?
A series of DVD sequences follow the history and technological development of music printing from type setting through engraving and photo-lithography to Sibelius, a computerised composition and music printing software package.

Brass Instruments: Technology & Music
How does a brass instrument work? What technology is involved in the manufacture of brass instruments and how come not all brass instruments are made of brass? What social and musical issues have effected the technological innovations of brass instruments? 
A series of DVD sequences which explore these questions, using footage recorded at Boosey & Hawkes Musical Instruments Ltd; The Collection of Historical Musical Instruments and The Department of Physics & Astronomy at Edinburgh University, together with musical illustrations played by Sandy McGrattan.
