Nadia Boulanger: Thoughts on Music
Nadia Boulanger: Thoughts on Music
The impact of Nadia Boulanger (1887-1979) on twentieth-century music was vast: as composer, keyboard performer, conductor, impresario and pedagogue. Her extensive musical networks included figures such as Fauré, Stravinsky and Poulenc, and her advocacy helped establish the compositions of her sister Lili Boulanger.
Few today realize, though, that Boulanger wrote numerous essays and reviews at various times in her career. These offer unparalleled insight into her thinking and illuminate aspects of musical culture in Europe and America from the from the rare point of view of an internationally prominent female artist.
