Product Description

Joséphine Pauline Boulay (22 May 1869 5 August 1925) was a French organist, composer and professor. Born in Paris, she became blind at age three. She began her studies with the Blind Sisters of St. Paul and then with the National Institution for the Blind. She was admitted to the Conservatoire de Paris in 1887 and studied with César Franck and Jules Massenet. In 1888, she became the first blind woman to win a first prize in organ at the Conservatoire. Appointed a professor at the National Institution for the Blind, she took charge of the organ and composition classes there while continuing her musical apprenticeship at the Conservatoire. For thirty-seven years she taught piano, organ, composition and harmony for young blind students and was decorated with the Palmes académiques in 1899. She died in Paris at 56 years of age. Opening with a Prelude, followed by an Andante and then a Fugue, this work 'Three Pieces [for Organ]' dates from 1898 and has been arranged for concert band as part of an ongoing project to bring more music by women into the worldwide concert band repertoire. #ArrangeMeGoals2023
