Nadia Boulanger was one of the most influential pedagogues in musical history. Aside from works heard today, which reflect both her students and her own musical passions, she was sought out in Paris by figures as diverse as Aaron Copland, Lennox Berkeley, Daniel Barenboim, Dinu Lipatti, Astor Piazzolla and Quincy Jones. This extraordinary list is testament to the diversity of musical voices that Boulanger was able to foster. Our Discovery Day is presented by Katy Hamilton. We are delighted that we will also be joined by composer Anthony Powers, himself a student of Boulanger, in conversation with Katy.
Discovery Day is a day of talks and performance in the beautiful Festival home, Treowen Manor. We invite you into our residency space to share music, food and to (hopefully!) discover something new.
Doors open at 11am, presentation begins at 11.30am, and the day is generally finished by 5.30pm.
