WOMEX 10 Conference: First Sessions Confirmed

Are you WOMEXperienced?

Each year the programme is designed to serve the industry's ongoing need for education, exchange and inspiration. From professional to sensual, intellectual to emotional, from "how-to?" to "why?", we will be taking the value of the "experience" this year to guide you through the Conferences at WOMEX 10.

As you would expect, not all sessions fit any one box or file but saunter between the Live, Recorded and Digital Experience extending out to the "Vision Beyond".

New at this year's Conference is the Discovery Room, a platform for 10-minute presentations of recent projects from our worldwide community. You will find the session under "Vision Beyond".
