Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990)

Leonard Bernstein, composerOne of the most influential American musical figures of the second half of the twentieth century, Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990) left an unparalleled legacy as a conductor, composer, pianist and teacher. Bernstein became the Musical Director of the New York Philharmonic in 1958, a post he held until 1969. His rich legacy of over 500 recordings, mostly with the New York Philharmonic, spans works of Beethoven, Brahms, Copland, Haydn, Schumann, Sibelius, and Mahler. His own compositions include the Jeremiah Symphony (1943), The Age of Anxiety (1949), Candide (1956), Mass (1971), and Kaddish (1963). Bernstein also composed music for Broadway stage hits such as On the Town (1944), and the West Side Story (1957). Through his television program the Young People's Concerts, he was instrumental in introducing classical music to the popular audience.
