Summary
Machine-generated summaryThis tender seeks a contractor to create the web page for the ERC-BROKENSONG project, an Irish research initiative. The project's main research output is a substantial digital corpus of medieval music supporting the study of musical style in medieval Britain and Ireland and the investigation of medieval musical sources and repertories. The technical development encodes Insular compositions from c.1150 to c.1350, capturing musical content and the characteristics of the medieval notation in which the music was originally recorded. The resulting data must support computational and music-analytical research while preserving information about notation, verbal texts and other features of the original sources.

Expected award price
- likely award for this notice, from its published estimate of €50,000
- €49,500 to €50,000

Each award is compared with the estimate of the same lots, framework agreements excluded. A published estimate may include options and renewals, so an award under it is not always a discount.

One dot per award, on the day it was signed, sized by its value. A ring is an award with no published value.
