More on Leonard Bernstein
Description from Wikipedia:
Leonard Bernstein (pronounced: /ˈbɜrnstaɪn/ ; August 25, 1918 – October 14, 1990) was a multi-Emmy and Grammy award-winning and Academy Award nominated American conductor, composer, author, music lecturer and pianist. He was among the first conductors born and educated in the United States of America to receive worldwide acclaim. He is perhaps best known for his long conducting relationship with the New York Philharmonic, which included the acclaimed Young People's Concerts series, and also for his compositions, which include the musical theater works West Side Story, Candide, and On the Town. Bernstein was the first classical music conductor to make numerous television appearances, perhaps more than any other classical conductor, all between 1954 and 1989. Additionally, he had a formidable piano technique and was a highly respected composer. According to the New York Times, he was "one of the most prodigally talented and successful musicians in American history."
Bernstein was very highly regarded as a conductor, composer, and educator. He was probably best known to the public as the longtime music director of the New York Philharmonic, for conducting concerts by many of the world's leading orchestras, and for writing the music for West Side Story. He wrote three symphonies, two operas, five musicals, and numerous other pieces.
