International Conductors Guild conferences provide a wonderful networking opportunity for conductors, composers, and anyone associated with the art and profession of conducting. This is a fantastic opportunity for doctoral candidates to present their papers, or for those who are already published to share the knowledge and research they have created and need to share with the field.
