MSt tutor Anna Beer will be speaking on Right Place, Right Time? Women Composers and Their Creative Communities
The lecture, a Fulbright Frontiers Lecture, will take place in Rewley House, 1 Wellington Square, Oxford OX1 2JA.
Join Anna and attendees at 5 pm for tea and coffee. The bar will be open after the lecture concludes at 6:30 pm.
