We’re delighted to share that our principal Lies Colman, appeared on a new podcast episode of Women on a Mission. In this inspiring 47-minute conversation, she reflects on how music has shaped her life; from her journey as an international concert pianist to her leadership role at the Royal Conservatoire.
Lies discusses why art is essential to our humanity and why accessible, high-quality arts education matters for everyone. She shares her vision for nurturing young talent, fostering creativity, and building an environment where students can truly thrive. She notes: “Nature makes us human, but culture makes us humane.”
After hearing her speak about music, artistry and leadership, you might just feel inspired to create, or listen to, music yourself.
