Lili Boulanger was born into a family of musicians and showed prodigious talent at a young age. She began composing music at the age of two and gave her first public performance at the age of five. Despite her poor health, which was caused by Crohn's disease, Lili continued to compose and studied with some of the leading composers of her time, including Gabriel Fauré and Nadia Boulanger, her older sister.

Lili is considered one of the most important composers of the early 20th century, and her music is known for its emotional intensity and innovative harmonies. She was the first woman to win the Prix de Rome composition prize, and her music was performed by leading orchestras and singers of the time.

Tragically, Lili's life was cut short when she died at the age of 24, due to complications from her illness. However, her musical legacy lives on, and her work continues to inspire musicians and composers around the world.
