Music Medals

14/02/08

Music Medals are fun and innovative instrumental music assessments offered by The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music, the World's largest music examination body, active in over 90 countries.

We were selected to redesign the website; develop a bespoke CMS for its management and design and develop a new database to store information about the various syllabus pieces and the publications in which they are available. We also enabled fast-starting flash video streaming and an improved search facility.

The new site and back-end offers significantly easier access to, and manipulation of the information needed in order to learn about and enter an assessment. Dynamic links are in place to the eCommerce solution used to buy publications to increase online sales.

"I’d also like to add my congratulations and thanks to all of you for our new shiny Music Medals site. We’ll be sure to feed on comments from the users – but I agree that it’s a huge improvement on the previous site and very much more user-friendly.

Ed – a special thanks has to go to you for overseeing not just the fantastic work of the Escape Committee but for the huge effort and endless hours spent in inputting information, overseeing repertoire list entry and for checking the detail of the site so thoroughly."
