Discover the luminous musical lineage that extends from the legendary studio of French music teacher, conductor and composer Nadia Boulanger to the vanguard of modern American song. We celebrate this enduring inheritance with a radiant program of warmth and hope, joining French masterpieces by Claude Debussy and Lili Boulanger with powerful American works by Samuel Barber, Jake Runestad, and Melissa Dunphy.
