Composer (1887–1979). She studied at the Paris Conservatoire (1897-1904), where she won several prizes, and went on to write many vocal and instrumental works, winning second prize at the Grand Prix de Rome in 1908 for her cantata, La Sirène (The Siren). After 1918 she devoted herself to teaching, first at home, and later at the Conservatoire and the Ecole Normale de Musique, where she had international influence. Two items: handwritten musical manuscript entitled ‘Scene II–Fragments, on seven sides of four lined musical manuscript pages, signed on the last page by Boulanger, who adds many notations to the intricate bars; and an autograph note, in French, written on one of her 3.25 x 2.5 embossed calling cards. Partial separation to spine of manuscript, a central horizontal fold, and scattered toning to manuscript, otherwise fine condition.
