When: Wed., July 24, 7 p.m. 2019

As part of the Halifax Summer Opera Festival, Jane Gordon unpacks why, despite there being many women composers in western tradition, there are relatively few in the world of opera. This lecture sees Gordon shining a light on the life and music of women opera composers, like Ethel Smyth and Hildegarde von Bingen, while musicians from the Opera Fest back her up.
