Pierre Boulez

Composer/Conductor/former Director NY Philharmonic

"At the chapel door he [a priest associated with a school Boulez attended] asked me if what he had been told was true: that Boulez no longer believed in God. I said it was and he replied, 'Then I won't show you the chapel where he prayed twice a day between the ages of six and sixteen'."-- from Boulez, an authorized biography by Joan Peyser, p.7 (Schirmer Books, New York, 1976)
