Page "Nadia Boulanger" Paragraph 13

She won the Conservatoire's first prize in harmony in 1903 and she remained there for another year although she had begun to earn money through organ and piano performances.

She studied composition with Fauré and in the 1904 competitions she came first in three categories: organ, accompagnement au piano and fugue ( composition ).

At her accompagnement exam, Boulanger met Raoul Pugno, a renowned French pianist, organist and composer, who subsequently took an interest in her career.
