This program is the first in a series of tributes to the far-reaching influence of Nadia Boulanger, one of the 20th century’s most legendary music pedagogues. From Thea Musgrave’s dynamic Points of View to Aaron Copland’s lyrical Appalachian Spring, we hear the imprint of her guidance—clarity, structure, and emotional truth. Mozart’s Horn Concerto reflects the ideals Boulanger championed, searching in tradition the possible paths for novel expressions.
