Protest song by Ethel Smyth on June 14
FemaleClassics will be singing "The March of the Women" at the feminist strike in Zurich. The group is calling for the allocation of state funds to be linked to the consideration of equality enshrined in the Federal Constitution.
In its press release dated June 6, the FemaleClassics network writes that the music sector, which receives the highest amounts of state subsidies year after year, is ignoring the equality enshrined in the Federal Constitution. It will send a letter to the Federal Parliament on June 14 with the demand "that state funding be linked to compliance with equality enshrined in law".
On June 14 in Zurich, the network will perform the protest song The March of the Women by the English composer and women's rights activist Ethel Smyth (1858-1944).
