Together with Debussy, Ravel, and Dukas, Lili Boulanger was one of the most important representatives of impressionism. Despite her short life of just 24 years, she developed a distinctive personal style, and composed a huge variety of works including songs, piano music, operatic scenes, and choral music, all with great inventiveness. In the Hymne au soleil (Hymn to the sun) the sun is acclaimed in an ecstatic stratifications of chords. The resulting melodic sequences and the changing meters are in a class of their own. To pull off this evocation of blazing light in performance requires confidence in the notes and an alert mind.
