The Maisonnettes of Lili and Nadia Boulanger
Around 1908, Raissa Boulanger, acquired a group of three buildings, called Les Maisonnettes, a stone's throw from the home of the famous pianist Raoul Pugno. Her daughters came here in the summer to work on their music with the maestro.
The exceptionally gifted elder Nadia composed and taught while instructing her younger sister Lili. In the early twenties, after the death of Lili, Nadia Boulanger asserted herself in her true vocation: teaching. In Gargenville, she conducted the summers of Hanneucourt, accommodating her students at the Maisonnettes and in the surrounding houses, which she connected to each other by telephone.
With "the Boulangerie (Bakery)", Gargenville became world famous as the Maisonnettes became the beating heart of the world’s musical education. Nadia Boulanger, who for nearly seventy-five years was the most famous teacher in the world, entered the history of music during her lifetime. The greatest musicians, from Aaron Copland to Astor Piazzola, from Leonard Bernstein to Michel Legrand, were her pupils.
Saint-Cyr-l'Ecole
The military high school of Saint-Cyr is one of the six lycées de la Défense (former military high schools) of the French Ministry of the Armed Forces, located in the town of Saint-Cyr-l'École. The buildings of the school have a particularly rich historical past: it was preceded by the Royal House of Saint-Louis, the Military Prytaneum and the Special Military School. The mottos of the school are "Rather die" and "The real school of command is general culture".
