@Bernstein_Chi what memories of the Chichester Psalms with #BSOrchestra #marinalsop in #ChiCathedral last year. Amazing #LennyBernstein bought a bit of his world here to Chichester with this magnificent score.

29 years ago, we said goodbye to the Maestro.

Leonard Bernstein – one of humanity's great creative and moral geniuses, born 101 years ago today – on cynicism, the trap of instant gratification, and paying attention as a countercultural act of courage and resistance https://t.co/drGME76rFE

Leonard Bernstein b otd 1918:

"The key to the mystery of a great artist is that for reasons unknown, he will give away his energies and his life just to make sure that one note follows another... and leaves us with the feeling that something is right in the world."

[Deutsche Grammophon (DG) @DGclassics]

"If you have this compulsion to be an artist and you do have talent and you are a functioning artist, then you owe it to yourself not to do anything self-destructive. You not only owe it to yourself, you owe it to the society of which you are a part."
- Leonard Bernstein, 1967
