No, Marni Nixon was NOT dubbed for this performance!

In my country this series was on tv during the 90 and it was an epiphany as a young person for me.

Verstehe ich nicht … Soll die Beschreibung darauf hindeuten, dass dieses Video per AI generiert wurde 🤔😅👀

This has been up for a year and there were only 2 comments? Can the world not recognize divinity in action?

If you were a betting man, would you have EVER bet there was was a full, orchestral performance of Ives' "4th of July" on NETWORK television??? Yet here it is in all it's glory, back there in late November of 1964. 2 fucking conductors??? Oh wow!

Just recently, we passed the 150th anniversary of Charles Ives’ birth. And the New York Philharmonic, which in Bernstein’s day played more of his music than almost anyone else, played not one note of it.

Been looking all over for this!

Who, in Gods name puts mindless, tone deaf commercials in between, while your trying to listen..concentrate..appreciate good music. It can only be described as an attention to distract from what can be enjoyed..for what purpose. What use to be commercial free in the same music program, without these lame commercial breaks, now watching later, the some music or whatnot, now is controlled, by, as Bernstein disscribed in this Liszt symphony, as the Devil...maybe a parallel...U Tube...aka Google

repetition! reprise

As much as I liked Mr Bernstein, I am so glad that I never had to sit through one of chatty concerts. Love the music. Love the Orchestra.

Tyler's singing is just amazing, beautiful.

One of the Greatest conductor, composer & music educator👍❤🎉

The improvised Pluto piece reminds me of Gyprgy Ligeti.

What the heck is this ? Listen to other video this is arranged by AI😂 completely against what Beethoven would have written

And they still sound better than my orchestra

Disagree with his opinion that this is Liszt's "greatest piece". That would be the Piano Sonata in b.

What a gem!!

So we have AI at the cusp of modernity and a video in 480p!

I also heard the conflict between man and alien in CE3K with that opening motif

As a young woman, I was privileged to be acquainted with Claudia and enjoyed her dazzling talent more than once. As I recall, her younger sister Renata was also musically talented, playing the cello beautifully.

So Holst got the last laugh at the end, as Pluto is no longer considered a planet and his masterpiece is still complete. Well, at least until or if we discover planet 9. 😁

Watching these when I was growing up gave me an interest in classical music, which has stayed with me all these years (I'm 68 now). And just to give a quick plug, if you enjoy these videos, check out YT videos featuring contemporary American composer Robert Greenberg. Or better yet, he has a whole library of lecture series available from The Great Courses on music theory, music history and the lives of great composers. Prof. Greenberg makes this sort of concert music accessible to us, just like Maestro Bernstein did.

I can never get enough of Bernstein! A natural teacher, but really more than that. He has, among many other assets, the superb artistry of principal oboist Harold Gomberg -- one of the most expressive players of his instrument. And the oboe is no easy force to harness! When the first of Bernstein’s two recordings of A Faust Symphony came out, about a decade before this concert, a reviewer in High Fidelity magazine opined that Bernstein had been Liszt in a previous life -- and offered that recording as proof.

Great ❤

I can't help compare these children with today's kids and it literally made me cry.

I'm kind of amused, I'm getting an ad right below the video for "flowkey: learn piano". As if some app is going to teach me to play like this.

I wish they still had a composer around today that would revive this format for today's kids on television. I watched these when I was a kid and looked forward to each episode.

The idea of ending a work in two keys had been borrowed from Strauss to end a famous musical based on Romeo and Juliet.

PERFECTION!

Thank you Sir Lenny! The GOAT 🐐 Conductor Ever! ❤🎉🎶❤️

Long path to a AI do something slightçy similar to a humam like Beethoven

Very good! I always like to see Bernstein's commentaries because he is always able to express in a few words the emotional core of the piece he is presenting us.

The Concerto Popolare is utterly brilliant, and perhaps unexplored even now the way that our experience of repertoire differs so radically from the period of composition of so many pieces. It is our familiarity, and, yes, partly boredom with Tchaikovsky One, the Grieg Piano Concerto, Rach Two and Rhapsody in Blue that makes all of that so delicious. It could only be enjoyed by an audience who knew all these pieces backwards from continued exposure on records, on the radio and in the concert hall.

nice, but not even comparable with Furtwängler

зачем так шумно дышать?

24:04 - Batman theme (1989)

When youre friend only plays baroque…….

It's kind of sad how mediocre Beethoven became after his death.

Such an amazing composer/conductor/Teacher in one!! Nobody surpasses him!❤️🎶

Bernstein was a complete genius and so missed . ❤

❤ Missing Jamie Buswell

I couldn't for the life of me understand what he was saying about the second theme and the closing theme being in the dominant key in the exposition, but in the tonic in the recapitulation. I mean, I did understand the words, but I couldn't hear it. To me the recapitulation sounded exactly the same as the exposition (notwithstanding the odd changed note here and there). I had to keep two TH-cam windows open, one stopped at the beginning of the second theme in the exposition, and the other stopped at the beginning of the second theme in the recapitulation, and to listen to them one right after the other. And then I finally heard it. In the recapitulation the melody, though identical, is played a bit lower. I've listened to this symphony hundreds of times, in the course of four decades. It is one of my favourite pieces of classical music. And yet I had never realized that the second theme and the closing theme were a bit higher in pitch in the exposition than in the recapitulation. I guess you need perfect pitch to be able to notice these things, and I don't have it. Is this what changing keys actually means? Is it just a fancy way of saying that the melody is simply shifted up or down a few steps?

The program was apparently “in the can” a few weeks before the 29 November air date. Note that announcer Jim Fassett cuts in to say that Bernstein requested that mention be made of Fritz Reiner’s death on the 15th, exactly a week before President Kennedy’s assassination, which was after the concert had been taped. Bernstein is going to be missed for a long time. An open secret of his success with the Young People’s series was his refusal to “talk down” to his audiences and his deep commitment to the series. There was another series of telecasts, Lincoln Presents Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic, which were done in a tv studio without an audience. A few of these have been made available, but not all. One was a documentary on the Philharmonic’s 1959 appearances in the then-USSR. There were two memorable Christmas programs, one featuring a piece by Lukas Foss as well as Poulenc’s then-new “Gloria”. It would be nice to have those again.
