Knowing the Score
Simone Young AO is internationally recognised as one of the most significant conductors of her generation. Knowing the Score celebrates the life and work of this inspiring, brilliant woman who made it to the top in a man’s world wielding her wit, determination, sense of humour and – most importantly – her baton.
The girl from Manly Beach, now a maestro with so many firsts to her name, she’s tired of the whole “woman” title that follows her around. Produced by Cate Blanchett, the Nelson Meers Foundation is privileged to support the documentary that captures the trailblazing career of an extraordinary conductor.
