Ethel Smyth had a strong voice. In politics, she fought for women’s suffrage. As a composer, her opera The Forest was produced by the Metropolitan Opera in New York—a first for a woman. We’ll hear Smyth’s Concerto for Horn and Violin this morning 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.
