The figures for Arts Council England funding for opera and brass bands in financial years 2019/20, 2020/21 are given below.<\/p>
<\/p>
The figures for each year are broken down into primary and secondary funding and then a total. Primary classification indicates that, in this case, opera or brass bands, was a major focus of the activity funded with the assumption most of this amount went to funding this activity. Secondary classification indicates this was a minor focus of the activity and so it cannot be assumed this full amount of funding went towards this activity.<\/p>
<\/p>
A small number of projects are classified under both opera and brass bands, so these figures cannot be added together, as these projects would be double counted.<\/p>
