About the event
The exceptional French composer, conductor and musicologist Nadia Boulanger’s unique approach to teaching composition attracted musicians from around the globe - not lease from the continent of America.
This programme celebrates and pays tribute to some of these, among whose number are many of the 20th century’s most individual and influential artists. Paris became a magnet not only for contemporary ‘classical’ composers but also for American jazz musicians and Argentinian tango musicians.
“…some of the most extraordinary piano-playing I’ve heard”
