I'm always looking forward to your fascinating performance, April . I can feel your thoughts and feelings put into this song. It's sleek, colorful, dramatic, and lively. Let's continue to listen to more wonderful music than ever before. You are an amazing teacher. A musical weekend and big good luck. Satoru
What a wonderful video filled with wonderful stories! Thank you for sharing them with us! ☺️ I studied musicianship with Simon Parkin, who was one of her students, and his astounding skill as a musician and composer led me to find out more about Nadia Boulanger. One of the qualities I admire most in Nadia is her total commitment to excellence in music - the never ending quest to hear more and understand better is something all musicians should aspire to. Thank you so much for your lovely performance too! 🎉
The first time I ever heard about the Boulanger sisters was from my own sister, when I was something like 10 years old. Little did I know how closely our paths would cross, in more ways than one!
Thanks, April - your Nocturne reminded me of my recording of it on my Tribute album, which coincidentally is with pianist Donald Sulzen, who attended L'ENS many years ago.
@@AprilClaytonflute I just posted it on FB. The first time, I tagged you and put your HB video in the comments, but FB removed it with a warning???? I reposted w/o tagging you, and it worked - weird!
Well, thanks for trying! I had a weird FB post removed with a warning recently, too. It seems like Facebook is getting extra, and ODDLY, vigilant!! Hmm.

I compared the wall behind you and Boulanger in the photos and you are right, you are standing where she was, no wonder your skin got prickly!

That's great, I'd love to hear your recording! Is there a place online that I and others stopping by here could find it? I'll take a look!
