Mike Weatherley MP is proud to announce Orange Amplification has come on board as the latest supporter of Rock the House, the parliamentary live music competition which supports the UK live music industry and promotes the importance of intellectual property rights.
For further information on Rock the House please visit www.rockthehouse2012.com
The competition sees MPs nominate the best live musicians and music venue from their constituencies. Now in it’s second year it has become the single most participated-in Parliamentary competition with a massive 165 MPs submitting nominations – including the Prime Minister David Cameron and the Secretary of State for Culture, Media & Sport, Jeremy Hunt.
The finalists will be announced on 23rd May, with the live finals competition being held on 30th May in last years’ joint winner in the live music venue category, the Bedford in Balham. Winners will be invited to play a live set on the terrace of the House of Commons in the evening, which will see a full backline of Orange amps.
Commenting on the involvement of Orange Amplification Mike Weatherley MP said “We’re delighted to have Orange on board, particularly with their strong British heritage dating back to the 60s with their products being used by international music legends”
Cliff Cooper, CEO of Orange Amplification said “We are very proud to be working with Mike in supporting the Rock The House competition which is both raising the awareness of the live music industry and also providing a superb platform to showcase the best of upcoming British talent.” Orange Amplification has just been awarded for the third time in six years the Queens award for Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2012.
With no shortage of Patronage from rock stars, a vast array of priceless prizes and a finalists’ judging panel that reads as the who’s who of the music industry, it is no surprise that Rock the House has captured the imagination of MPs and musicians alike.

On Friday 18th May, the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance welcomes drumming specialist Florian Alexandru-Zorn to give an exclusive masterclass to students at its facilities in Kilburn, London.
Hailing from Germany, Florian’s musical career began in the progressive rock genre with bands such as Concrete Floor. At the age of 18 Florian was touring with Romuald Erenc (one of the most renowned jazz and classical guitar players in Poland) and his band through Poland and Germany, with whom he still plays.
Florian is now a full-time instructor, musician and author, specialising in brush playing. His drumming incorporates an array of styles from jazz to world music, hip hop and drum ’n’ bass. In 2009 he toured with the European Masterclass BigBand (Peter Herbolzheimer). He also performs in a jazz group with Professor Thomas Stabenow, and with his own Trio.
The masterclass will focus on The Art of Brushes: How to apply your own voice to the brushes. By gathering techniques from all genres including jazz, funk and reggae, Florian has assembled the most comprehensive and clear concept for brush technique available, from which he has authored his book ‘The Brush Secret’, released by Alfred Music Publishing.
The Institute is currently enrolling for its September drum courses including BMus, BA, Higher Diploma and Diploma. For more information on this event or courses at the Institute, contact us directly:
