Book Launch: Big Music

State Library, Woiwurrung Country, State Library Victoria, 285-321 Russell St, Melbourne 3000, Victoria

Join us to celebrate the launch of Gillian Wills’ new book, Big Music.

Beat is given a chance to shine when she is appointed dean of Turalong Music School, but her role is not what it seems. Fine tuning this institution is like playing a cracked violin with broken strings. She's determined to revive the school's reputation despite gender bias, staff conflict, fraud, betrayal, a famous composer's ghost and a predatory university.

Stewart Kelly, the artistic director of Hepburn Music by the Springs, will join Wills in conversation on the night.

Justin Beere, the Associate Principal Clarinetist of Orchestra Victoria will be performing a brief intro to the launch.

Free, but bookings are essential.
