4/5. The Wilderness Years
Between 1910 and 1912, Ethel Smyth virtually gave up writing music and devoted herself to the suffragist cause. Smyth was a friend and supporter of Emmeline Pankhurst , and wrote what became the marching anthem for the cause, The March of the Women. One of the few works Smyth completed in 1912 was her String Quartet in E minor. Donald Macleod and Odaline de la Martinez discuss these years of change and their effect on Ethel Smyth 's music.
