BOOK PUBLICATION Globalisation Revisited: A Global Phenomenon under the Microscope Globalisation has become one of the watchwords of the latter Twentieth and early Twentieth First century. Whilst globalisation is written and talked about in a general sense this book seeks to take stock and reflect on the `era of globalisation’ through a series of regional case studies aimed at elucidating examples of globalisation in action. The book will begin with an attempt to define ‘globalisation’ as well as to give a brief history of the theoretical nature of globalisation along with schools of thought about the nature and purpose of the topic. It will also present a brief explanation of how globalisation itself has inadvertently assisted those individuals and organisations who are committed to containing or curtailing that which they refer to as globalisation.

ABRM announces a Call for Papers for the publication of a book entitled Globalisation Revisited: A global phenomenon under the microscope to be edited by Professor P.R.Banerjee and Dr P.R.Datta. Interested authors are invited to contribute chapter(s) in the book. For further details please click here

This is an opportunity for graduating high school students to experience performing at an amateur university level, music lovers who would like to know the buzz of singing in an established musical group and for ex-members who are unable to attend regular rehearsals reconnect with old friends.

PUCS is a non-auditioned adult choir, with a proud history of a high musical standard in all of our concerts. PUCS acts as a training choir for singers with little or no experience in choral singing, with many former members going onto to pursue their love of singing in other choirs, solo singing careers and even as choral conductors.

With a myriad of members ranging from fresh undergraduates to seasoned choristers from all professions, PUCS aims to encourage the appreciation of choral music in the student bodies of Perth as well as the wider community. The choir is a supportive environment for all singers, regardless of previous training and experience.

We extend a warm invitation to learn, sing and laugh with us.

Please contact us to register your expression of interest.
