about

Nadia Boulanger was an energetic and talented composer, conductor and teacher.  After entering the Paris Conservatoire to study composition at the age of ten, she went on to place second in the coveted Prix de Rome prize for composition in 1908.  Under Nadia’s tutelage, her sister Lili won the Prix de Rome in 1913, the first women ever to do so.  Upon the tragic death of Lili in 1918, Nadia ceased composition and focused the remainder of her life on teaching, first at the Paris Conservatoire and later at the Juilliard School.  Despite a lifetime of musical achievement, she is perhaps best remembered for her famous pupils, among them Elliot Carter, Walter Piston, Thea Musgrave and Aaron Copland.  In 1915, Nadia took three short organ pieces she had previously composed, and transcribed them for cello and piano.
