Ethel Smyth was a leader in the women’s suffrage movement, even going to prison for a time for her political action. Her music was criticized at times for being too masculine and at other times for being too feminine. We’ll hear her Concerto for Violin and Horn today on 91.1, 107.5, and our music stream.
From WSHU's daytime and evening classical programs, Emily Boyer and Lauren Rico give you a heads-up on some of the best music they'll be sharing with you.
