Leonard Bernstein Essentials: Der Komponist

Leonard Bernstein Essentials: Der Komponist

Apple Music Classical

Leonard Bernstein war der erste US-Dirigent, der im 20. Jahrhundert zum internationalen Star werden sollte, doch sein Lebenswerk als Komponist ist nicht minder bedeutend: Von der eindrucksvollen Filmmusik zum Marlon-Brando-Klassiker „Die Faust Im Nacken” (1954) über seine drei Sinfonien und viele andere Orchesterwerke hin zu seinen Musicals, allen voran die unsterbliche „West Side Story” (1957), hinterließ Bernstein seine intelligente und lyrische Handschrift in vielen Bereichen. Das gilt auch für seine späteren Werke wie das Theaterstück „Mass” (1971) oder die Oper „A Quiet Place” (1983).
