God, how I admire this man.

Wallace and Bernstein come from remarkably similar backgrounds—born in 1918 to Russian Jewish parents and raised in Brookline MA.

Seeing this makes me more eager to see Bradley Cooper’s film about him

He was MAGNIFICENT.

Inspiring!!!👏👏👏👏

I have been a fan of Bernstein all my life , even when i was a child during his broadcasting tv program " young people concert " . Great musician ,Great conductor, great composer,  great pianist, and the most important thing, great teaching  to the young musicians and conductors . He was the man who revolutionized the art of conducting of the XX century . His legacy in performance contemporary music at that time   is immeasurable. Specially  in conducting  for the first time all the Mahler's cycle, listen well,  all cycle  all over the world , after Mengelberg , around 1920 in Vienna. Apart to be a genius, He was a pacifist, humanist, believer, disinterested in money, in fame and was always in favor of the noble causes of humanity, perhaps because he survived the genocide of the Second World War and all the xenophobia of it. He was the antithesis of karajan.....

Even his defense of being nontheatrical, was in fact theatrical

This segment shows LB’s love for music & his desire to share that love w/people around the world. But that took away a lot of private time he otherwise could have spent composing, which he alluded to at the end of the interview. While Lenny regretted not being a more prolific writer, the overall legacy he left behind ensures that he will never be forgotten.

Been waiting for this 60 Minutes piece on LB for a long time.  Thanks....

"Money means absolutely nothing to me......"It does when you have not got any....

Incredible handsome fella Leonard Bernstein even as a silver fox!! But more on wife Felicia, lovely wife. As for his works On the Town, fab musical as well as West Side Story.❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is so much more satisfying than MAESTRO, good as it was. I imagine thats why Copper decided to concentrate on his marriage. Hos career is very well documented and we have his own words and own voice readily available.

I feel that Lenny and I share a kindred spirit.  He died two years before I was born, and my musical talent is limited, but I completely identify with his boundless energy, passion, and commitment.  He and I both love to be the center of attention, and we love to bring joy to others.  We are both natural teachers, who care about sharing our passions with the rising generation.

Jesus....Bradley Cooper really over exaggerated Bernstein's voice in the movie.  Bernstein sounds nornal.  The way Cooper portrayed his voice just sounds fucked up.

Can wait to see Maestro!!

"...Lennie's two great passions: music and young men" ;-)

Thank you for posting this video...😍

Leonard Bernstein, an unbearably handsome man😍😍😍

Thank you 🌹🌹🌹

I love Lenny but those cigarettes killed him. I have seen very few videos of him without a cigarette in his mouth...this video also shows the cough that is the precursor of emphysema from which he died....
