Leonard Bernstein: the maestro behind MAESTRO

Whether he be playing the Rhapsody in Blue on the piano, explaining orchestral instruments to a hall of children, recording Mahler’s symphonies with the Wiener Philharmoniker or composing one of the works most performed throughout the world, (West Side Story), Bernstein proved that music was his ideal and absolute means of expression.
