About the event

Join us for a relaxed evening with the inspirational Dr Margaret Pride, an accomplished and inspiring conductor with an extraordinary résumé, at the beautiful facilities of Public House, Perth.
You’ll hear about Margaret’s remarkable career - from leading the Perth Symphonic Chorus in acclaimed performances of works such as Handel’s Messiah and Brahms’ A German Requiem, to conducting internationally, including collaborations in Europe and the United States.
She will share her insights on succeeding in a traditionally male-dominated field, drawing on decades of experience at the podium and in shaping the next generation of choral leaders.
Margaret’s presentation will be followed by a Q&A session, offering the opportunity to discuss questions and share your own challenges and experiences.
Registration is free but essential, dinner at own costs.
