    Every time I hear Lili Boulanger, I get so upset about how the world was robbed of what she had ahead of her. An amazing voice lost too soon.

      I feel the same way - and similarly about Clifford Brown.

      @@grahamlyons8522 Right on Graham...tragic loss. How many times have I listened to "I Remember Clifford" by many players..the other terrific loss was Bass player Scott LaFaro, who performed with Bill Evans. Woodwind players would have loved to have heard the Sonata Debussy was about to compose for Oboe..... I am thankful for every piece of joy we do have.

      I don't feel as upset for what the world was robbed of as much as I feel upset for what she was robbed of.

    Lili Boulanger: le printemps revient chaque fois que j'écoute ce chef d'oeuvre. A 24 ans! Rendez-vous compte, les amis! Quelle invention, quelle poésie ! La vie est injuste; moi qui n'ai rien composé, je suis toujours là à un âge avancé.😪 Pour rendre hommage à Lili, j'essaie de faire connaître autour de moi son oeuvre impérissable. Merci à cette grande dame.

    I like the very French-influenced melody at 4:20 we had to wait for. This piece sounds contemporary to my ears, similar to nice movie soundtracks, with instrumental choices that make me think of Holtz and John Williams. I love how the solo violin emerges out of clusters with other instruments.

    I was sad to learn that Lili Boulanger died at age 24. I lost my daughter Jessica to cancer when she was age 25. Jessica was not a musician; she wrote short fiction and poetry. While she bravely accepted the diagnosis her condition was terminal Jessica said "Life is unfair, and it is unfair that it is unfair." Sad but true for both Lili and Jessica.

      What Jessica said rings very true. I'm really sorry for your loss. I hope she's in heaven with her Savior.

      My condolences. Whoever dies is because he fulfilled the Mission on Earth. Jessica lives in the hearts of those who loved her.Que Deus abençoe o senhor e sua família.

      I’m sorry to hear of your daughter. I survived stage 4 terminal somehow and have survivors guilt from those who didn’t make it. But they went to a better place than this. This is supposed to be heaven. But humans are deeply confused!

    I’ve never heard this piece, but it kind of shocked me. It’s so light and gregarious considering the fact that she was writing this in the darkest days of her life.

    Nascida em Paris, em 1893, Lili era considerada uma criança prodígio e seu talento teria despontado já aos dois anos de idade, quando Gabriel Fauré, um amigo da família e tutor das irmãs Boulanger, descobriu que ela tinha um ouvido absoluto. Seus pais, ambos também músicos, encorajaram as filhas a ter educação musical..
    Lili costumava acompanhar sua irmã Nadia às aulas no Conservatório de Paris antes de ter 5 anos de idade. Pouco depois ela começa a ter aulas de órgão e teoria musical com Louis Vierne. Lili se tornou proficiente em piano, violino, violoncelo e harpa.
    Em 1912, Lili competiu no Prix de Rome, mas enquanto performava perante a banca, ela sofre um desmaio. Ela voltou em 1913, aos 19 anos, e ganhou por sua cantata Faust et Hélène, tornando-se a primeira mulher a ganhar o prêmio.
    Seu trabalho é notável pela harmonia e instrumentação, além da habilidade com a letra e a melodia. É possível ver em seus trabalhos influências de Claude Debussy e Gabriel Fauré, além de Arthur Honegger. Durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial, Nadia e Lili organizaram esforços para auxiliar os soldados franceses.
    Lili adorava viajar, mas sua vida e seu trabalho foram prejudicados por doenças crônicas. Começou com pneumonia aos 2 anos, que enfraqueceu seu sistema imunológico, levando a uma tuberculose, que por fim a matou aos 24 anos de idade, em Mézy-sur-Seine, em 15 de março de 1918. Uma outra causa possível de sua morte seria a Doença de Crohn, identificada apenas em 1932.

    I really love this piece, and the performances by the players are excellent, but I don’t know if I like the interpretation from the conductor, especially the tempos.

    • @philzmusic8098
      @philzmusic8098 2 года назад +1

      Too slow or too fast? I'd guess too slow.

    • @davidspratt2001
      @davidspratt2001 10 месяцев назад

      Tempo is a little fast, and I think that the piece loses some of its impressionist mystery. The performance on the cd 'les etoiles' is perfect.
