Composer: Lili Boulanger (1893-1918). Soloist: Cathleen Kalcic.
This piece was composed by Boulanger at the age of 18 and two years before she won the prestigious Prix de Rome competition, the first woman to have done so. In Greek mythology, sirens, those sisters of the sea, embody beauty, allure and danger, enchanting and luring sailers with their lovely song.
Recorded Spring 2009 in Menlo Park, CA.
