Maddalena Lombardini published an opus of six string quartets in 1769. The genre was so new then that it did not yet have its own category in the publishing house catalogue. Lombardini was not just the first female composer to write string quartets; she was one of the first composers of string quartets ever. But where is her name in the history books? Join the Cambridge String Quartet for an evening celebrating the life and music of this extraordinary woman.
