Repertoire in dialogue

A pupil of Louis Vierne and then of Alexandre Guilmant, and winner of the Paris Conservatoire’s first prize in organ in 1904, Nadia Boulanger deputised for Fauré and then Henri Dallier at the Madeleine and performed as an organist in Europe and the United States, where during her 1924-1925 tour she premiered Copland’s Symphony for Organ and Orchestra. A teacher of worldwide renown, she left only three organ pieces (1911) and a Pièce sur des airs populaires flamands.
