埃塞尔-斯迈思夫人出生于一个音乐世家。她 19 岁进入莱比锡音乐学院学习，其作曲能力很快得到认可。她创作了多部歌剧，包括 1901 年在德累斯顿上演的《Der Wald》，后来又在考文特花园和纽约大都会歌剧院上演。她还创作了歌曲、D大调弥撒曲、《安东尼与克里奥派特拉》序曲、D大调管弦乐小夜曲、《清障者》前奏曲、小提琴和大提琴奏鸣曲、弦乐四重奏和管风琴前奏曲。她是女权运动的领袖，创作了《妇女进行曲》和《妇联战歌》。晚年，她很少创作音乐，部分原因是耳聋日渐严重，但她继续创作优秀的散文。她的回忆录《留下的印象》（Longmans，1919 年）是一本引人入胜的读物。1910 年，她被杜伦大学授予荣誉 DMus，1922 年被授予 DBE 勋章

原文简介:
Dame Ethel Smyth was born into a musical family. She went to study at the Leipzig Conservatory at the age of 19 and her ability as a composer was soon recognised. She composed several operas including Der Wald which was performed at Dresden in 1901 and later at Covent Garden and at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. She also wrote songs, a mass in D, an overture to Anthony and Cleopatra, a serenade in D for orchestra, a prelude to The Wreckers, sonatas for both violin and cello, string quartets and organ preludes. She was a leader in the suffragette movement, and composed The March for Women and The Battle Song of the W.S.P.U. In her later years she wrote little music, partly due to increasing deafness, but continued to write excellent prose. Her book of memoirs Impressions that Remained (Longmans 1919) makes fascinating reading. In 1910 she was given an honorary DMus from Durham University and was awarded the DBE in 1922.
