When Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) won the renowned "Prix de Rome" in 1913,
she was the very first woman to be honored with this prize at all. Her
far too early death led to her music always being in the shadow of
Debussy and Ravel when talking about impressionist music. This CD with
the Orpheus Vokalensemble is being issued in 2018, on the occasion of the centenary of her death. Due to her individual musical language, its diversity of color, its metaphorical content and its poetry, Lili Boulanger can be counted as one of Impressionism’s great artists. We would have liked to have heard more of her music. (carus-verlag.com)
