In his 1912 report to the “President and Fellows of Yale University,” Dean Horatio Parker wrote that the School’s Samuel Simons Sanford Fellowship given “to the most gifted performer who shall also have marked ability in original composition,” Parker explained “was made this year for the first time to Helen Eugenia Hagan for a brilliant performance of an original concerto (first movement) for piano and orchestra. Ms. Hagan shows not only pianistic talent of rare promise but also clearly marked ability to conceive and execute musical ideas of much charm and no little originality.”
