Stand by for Women of the World Festival at London’s South Bank.

Southbank Centre is pleased to announce that we are once again recruiting female musicians to join the Women of the World Orchestra.

That’s the top line.

Here’s the small print:

The WOW Orchestra is not able to offer any fees to its players and is designed as an exciting, unique and fun professional development opportunity, celebrating great women in classical music and advocating and campaigning for equal and fairer treatment for the female musicians of the future.

Oh, ffff’s sake, SB bosses Jude Kelly and Gillian Moore. Respect what you pretend to respect.
