Concert Information

This programme pairs the startlingly beautiful and harmonically daring choral works of Lili Boulanger with music by her sister Nadia.

This 麻豆官网首页入口 Singers concert offers a rare opportunity to compare the musical voices of two sisters 鈥� one a Prix de Rome-winning composer, the other best known today as a pedagogue, teacher to Philip Glass, Aaron Copland and Elliott Carter, among others.

Lili鈥檚 expansive gestures and bold harmonic palette 鈥� all the more striking when you consider that they are the product of a composer still in her 20s 鈥� are showcased in the blazing Hymn au soleil and the delicate sensuality of Les Sirenes, while Nadia鈥檚 more contained musical language is at its best in miniature Maeterlinck-setting Cantique and immaculate song-cycle Les heures claires.
