Event Details
The Melbourne Lawyers' Orchestra (Lawchestra) and Habeas Chorus are thrilled to present "March of the Women", a celebration of diversity through the music of female composers. We bring to light the talent and and inspirational works of women in music who have historically been under-represented and under-performed. The concert includes works from the 1800's through to the modern era by women of diverse cultural backgrounds. Through this concert, we draw a connection with the ongoing work being done, and that must continue to be done, to promote diversity in the legal industry.
