“I’ve been a woman for a little over 50 years and have gotten over my initial astonishment. As for conducting an orchestra, that’s a job where I don’t think sex plays much part.”

~ Nadia Boulanger

 

Mademoiselle Nadia Boulanger had many students, among those includes Quincy Jones:  Conductor, Composer, Arranger, and Multi – Instrumentalist.
