Description
SOMM Recordings celebrates the centenary of Leonard Bernstein’s birth in style with a remarkable 1993 live broadcast recording – never before issued and newly mastered for CD – with the Hannover Philharmonie conducted by Iain Sutherland. Five of Bernstein’s era-defining works for Broadway and Hollywood revel in his inexhaustible gift for memorable melodies, his vivid sense of drama, infectious playfulness and captivating sense of poetry. Robert Matthew-Walker, author of Broadway to Hollywood: the Musical and the Cinema, provides insightful booklet notes that illuminate Bernstein the man, the composer and his wonderfully inimitable music.
