S1E57: Psalms and Sirens - The Life and Works of Lili Boulanger

Life is about making the most of everything you've got, no matter how long your time is here on this big, blue marble. Lili Boulanger, the younger sister of the renowned pedagogue Nadia Boulanger, only lived to the age of 24, but during her short life, she was able to accomplish more than what most composers of her time could only dream of. Theme music is by Daryl Banner.
