The Bard Music Festival’s 31st season returns Aug. 6-15 with a special tribute titled Nadia Boulanger and Her World. The 12 concert programs celebrate the legacy of this pioneering pedagogue, composer, conductor, pianist and organist from Paris, who helped shape generations of American musicians.
The event taps into a wealth of compositions by Boulanger’s predecessors, her contemporaries and her unparalleled roster of students. It takes place in the Frank Gehry-designed Fisher Center for the Performing Arts and other venues on Bard College’s Hudson River campus. There the Bard Music Festival will cap the return of the Bard SummerScape series of live music, dance, opera, and other on-campus performances
