Composer's Workshop: Antoinette Dale Henderson

What does it take to command respect as a composer or performer? Gravitas is a crucial quality for getting your authentic voice heard. In a fast-paced, competitive environment, people with gravitas are more able to have the impact they deserve, with potential commissioners, publishers, agents and performers, and be better appreciated and understood by choirs and orchestras who are going to sing or play your music. But what is gravitas, and how can you develop it for yourself?

In this masterclass, developed especially for the Music Faculty, Antoinette Dale Henderson, TEDx speaker and author of Leading with Gravitas, reveals the six qualities that people with gravitas share and presents a model that enables you to assess, and accelerate, your own gravitas. Packed with practical, real-world techniques, you’ll come away with a clear understanding of your strengths and tangible steps you can take to communicate with confidence.
