Margaret Rizza studied at the Royal College of Music, London and the National School of Opera, London, completing her training in Siena and Rome. She taught singing at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London from 1977-1994 and since 1983 she has dedicated herself to the work of spirituality and to the wider aspect of music in the community.

She leads many retreats and choral days and is closely involved with the World Community for Christian Meditation. She now works full-time composing and giving retreats, prayer and music days and choral workshops. She has five published and recorded CD collections, an instrumental CD and two Eucharistic settings.

Pre-Seminar Silent Retreat - August 7-10, 2006

"Harmony in the Soul"
The Seminar will be preceded by a silent retreat led by Laurence Freeman OSB, Director of The World Community for Christian Meditation (WCCM). Fr. Laurence will explore the meaning of inner peace and how we must first of all face our inner conflicts and disharmonies before finding that 'Christ himself is our peace'. This inner harmony then spreads outwards into our lives and we see how meditation, the prayer of the heart, can change the world.

A Pilgrimage to sacred sites in the area will be led by Margaret and Father Laurence Aug, 14-16 -- including sites where John Main visited, especially where he learned to meditate while he served in the British Foreign Service in Malaysia.
