Concert-bénéfice pour ADLF, MADEMOISELLE se penche sur la force tranquille mais constante de Nadia Boulanger
About this Event

Cheffe d’orchestre, compositrice, mentor, icône. Ce programme intimiste de musique de chambre rend hommage à la grandiose influence de Mademoiselle Nadia Boulanger. Découvrez cette professeure légendaire à travers ses mots et sa musique, ainsi que la musique de ses élèves.

Première femme à diriger plusieurs grands orchestres internationaux, Nadia Boulanger a pavé la voie. Mais son véritable héritage réside dans son enseignement. Figure parmi les plus influentes de l’histoire de la musique, elle a façonné le son du XXe siècle, non pas en imposant sa propre voix, mais en cultivant celles de ses élèves.


Parmi ses prestigieux disciples, on retrouve Burt Bacharach, Leonard Bernstein, Aaron Copland, Quincy Jones, Philip Glass, Michel Legrand et Astor Piazzolla, aux styles très différents, mais qui ont tous bénéficié de la discipline ardue et des solides bases musicales que Nadia Boulanger leur a inculquées. Grâce à son approche rigoureuse, elle offre à ses élèves un paradoxe : la liberté à travers la structure. Son influence continue de faire des vagues au-delà des continents et des genres, façonnant symphonies, trames sonores, jazz, tango et chefs d’œuvre minimalistes.

Avec ses lettres, ses anecdotes et sa musique, MADEMOISELLE vous convie dans l’univers privé d’une matriarche musicale dont l’impact public extraordinaire résonne encore aujourd’hui.


« Rien n’est meilleur que la musique; quand elle nous emmène hors du temps, elle a fait pour nous plus que nous n’avions le droit d’espérer » —Nadia Boulanger

Conductor, composer, mentor, icon. This intimate chamber music programme pays tribute to the towering influence of Mademoiselle Nadia Boulanger. Discover the legendary teacher through her own words and music—and the music of her students.

The first woman to conduct many of the world’s major orchestras, Boulanger was a trailblazer. But her true legacy lies in her teaching. As one of music history’s most influential figures, Boulanger shaped the sound of the 20th century—not by imposing her own voice, but by cultivating the voices of her students.


Her impressive list of pupils includes Burt Bacharach, Leonard Bernstein, Aaron Copland, Quincy Jones, Philip Glass, Michel Legrand and Astor Piazzolla— stylistically worlds apart, yet the intense discipline and musical foundation Boulanger instilled in them is tangible. Through her rigorous approach, Boulanger offers her students a paradox—freedom through structure. Her influence continues to ripple across continents and genres, shaping symphonies, film scores, jazz, tango and minimalist masterpieces.


Through letters, anecdotes, and music, MADEMOISELLE invites you into the private world of a musical matriarch whose extraordinary public impact still reverberates today.


« Nothing is better than music; when it takes us out of time, it has done more for us than we have the right to hope for » —Nadia Boulanger
