Dallas Symphony will present its 2021 Women in Classical Music Symposium, titled “The Future is Female: Inspiring Women in Top Leadership Positions.” Administrators, educators, musicians and conductors from all over the world will gather in conversation, panels, and discussions for this year’s event.

The third year of the DSO’s Women in Classical Music Symposium will focus on inspiring women in top leadership positions. Despite the fact that women outpace their male counterparts in graduation from prominent conservatories and schools of music, they are underrepresented in titled conducting positions, in programming by major orchestras, on stage as soloists and in management leadership positions.

The Dallas Symphony’s symposium strives to be a catalyst for broad-scale change in the industry. Panel discussions and conversations during the symposium will bring to light the strategic changes and pathways that can be created to advance the next generation of leaders.

The 2021 symposium will continue its tradition of networking opportunities with the ever-popular Coffee-Hour Chats and Mentorship Speed Dating Sessions.
