The Peggy Glanville-Hicks Address is an annual forum for ideas relating to the creation and performance of Australian music.
In this year's address, 'A Culture of Confidence', conductor Benjamin Northey argues that Australian art music does not primarily have a preservation problem, but a relevance, imagination and connection opportunity. He will explore how greater cultural confidence can be expressed through the elevation of Australian artists and repertoire, deeper connection with audiences and how a shared sense of responsibility for our musical future might help build a more distinctive, ambitious and inspiring musical culture.
The evening also includes performances by the Australian National Academy of Music.
Named after the Australian composer Peggy Glanville-Hicks, this annual event has been igniting debate and highlighting crucial issues since its establishment in 1999.
Presented by the Australian Music Centre.
