Gate at 7: #Peace | Where Eternity Begins

Ethel Smyth's powerful string quintet in E major and Schubert's touching C major quintet D 956 are the focus of an evening that tells of artistic courage and deep musical peace. Smyth's passionate music emerged in resistance to societal boundaries, while Schubert struggled more with his personal inner "boundaries." His C major quintet is a work for the ages, characterized by an intimacy that is hard to surpass.
