  • Leonard Bernstein
    TuneUp! TuneUSaturday, October 18th, 2008 p! New York Philharmonic Young People’s Concert® elcome to a new season of Young People’s Concerts! Throughout history, there have been special times when music flowered in specific cities—Capitals of Music—that for a while W became the center of the musical world. Much of the music we know today comes from these times and places. But how did these great flowerings of music happen? That’s what we’ll find out this year as we discover the distinctive sounds of four of these Capitals. And where better to start than right here in New York? After the Second World War, our city became a cultural capital of the world. Leonard Bernstein—who became Music Director of the New York Philharmonic 50 years ago this fall—defined music in New York in his roles as composer, conductor, and teacher. So what was it like in New York back then? Let’s find out from a child of that time—Leonard Bernstein’s BERNSTEIN’S NEW YORK daughter Jamie! THE PROGRAM: BERNSTEIN “The Great Lover” from On the Town COPLAND “Skyline” from Music for a Great City (excerpt) GERSHWIN “I Got Rhythm” from Girl Crazy BERNSTEIN “America” from West Side Story Suite No. 2 COPLAND Fanfare for the Common Man Jamie Bernstein, host BERNSTEIN On the Waterfront Symphonic Suite (excerpt) Delta David Gier, conductor SEBASTIAN CURRIER “quickchange” from Microsymph Tom Dulack, scriptwriter and director BERNSTEIN Overture to Candide 1 2 3 5 4 CAN YOU IDENTIFY EVERYTHING IN AND AROUND LEONARD BERNSTEIN’S NEW YORK STUDIO?

Lenny, as I knew him, the great musician, the 20th century giant with whom, in 1986, I conceived the Academy, was one of the first people with whom I engaged in dialogue about “this thing,” as he called it, just before proposing that we call our “thing” the Academy for the Love of Learning. “Why that name?”, I asked – and he said: “because you believe that if we truly open ourselves to learning, it will liberate us and bring us home, individually and collectively. So, the name is perfect, because the acronym is ALL!” I resisted it at first, but soon came to realize that the name indeed was perfect. This and other prescient dialogues have helped us get to where we are today – a thriving, innovative organization.
