Jerry Hadley is a SPLENDID SPEAKER as well as SINGER. What an articulate, insightful, brilliant man. And how handsome!
What an elegant and intelligent man and tenor. This is a fabulous foray into the life of opera and Bernstein. Thank you so much for this interview.
What a gem of an interview. Jerry told me several of these stories in person. His Bernstein imitation was hilarious. What a gift and what a loss.
1:19:10 Thank you Jerry Hadley for this intimate, authentic view into Lenny’s life. I feel like I know him a little bit now and as a huge fan this has been truly wonderful.
Jerry Hadley is so sorely missed.
Bernstein indeed loved a great many different types of music, but this little story I think illustrates his love for and fascination with sound as the basic raw material of music. The jazz bassist Charlie Haden was performing at a club with the then avant-garde saxophonist Ornette Coleman and was deep into his free improvisation when he suddenly opened his eyes and was stunned to see someone kneeling in front of his bass with his ear pressed against the instrument. In shock he asked Coleman, "Who's that!?" to which Ornette replied, "Don't you know? That's Leonard Bernstein!"
I think this is the best "picture" ever given of Leonard Bernstein, thank you Mr. Hadley.
A man of amazing accomplishment talking about a man of amazing accomplishment...
Depression has robbed the world of so many talented people.....RIP.
A terrible loss.
High intelligence speaking and speaking about - yes very brave and deeply heroic Thankyou
This is amazing...he is so intelligent, perceptive, and eloquent!
Was waiting for " ..
For a singer"
@@jefolson6989 For what?perspective? what?
@sarahjones-jf4pr the disclaimer that follows praise. " he is a good musician..
....FOR A SINGER"
The best, most insightful interview about LB I've ever seen and jibes with my experience of him.
Fantastic interview, and Jerry is absolutely riveting. To get a glimpse of Bernstein through someone who worked with him and performed with him is very rewarding. I particularly like the fact that he sees Bernstein as a multifaceted and complex person, and while acknowledging his faults as well as his virtues, he does so from a place of respect and deep wisdom, and with an injection of humor. Jerry's own passion for music and the appreciation of music inspires and thrills me, and I hope many others, and Bernstein has had a role in that for both of us.
He was so well-spoken and intelligent...
I love this wonderful interview ❤
Enthralling and enlightening interview.
What a moving and intelligent interview !!!!!
Wonderful interview with a gem of an interviewee.
A fascinating interview. Luckily I saw him in the Candide with Bernstein in London. Quite an experience which I still remember with awe. Also the Joan Sutherland story rings very true.
Thank you from the deep of my heart🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🙏💖
This guy and Bernstein are both geniuses
Thank you for your honesty!I see you as a hero,where everyone that speaks negative is only jealous and they will never feel enough never.
Wonderful! Thank you so much!
American Genius - and geniuses
I think LB’s treatment of Dimitri Mitropoulos goes beyond foible (“outing” him with both the BSO and NYP, to advance his own career, f.I.), and yet he invited DM to conduct a month of Mahler symphonies with NYP. Hadley understands LB’s complexity better than most. Both of them are sorely missed.
Interviewed Hadley and Hampson together. They had has a few were feeling no pain. But funny.
"There is no next Bernstein" NO AND NEVER WILL BE........
Why was he not the tenor in the recording of ‘West Side Story’? Bernstein certainly didn’t appreciate the one he got.
@@fontevrault4690 I have read elsewhere that she was no ‘Bubbles’ behind the scenes.
To be fair, NYCO had a pretty tenuous financial situation and she would have been giving up her biggest star... although I'm sure there was a power play at work...
Bernstein did not want Carreras. Obviously Hadley would had been a far more realistic choice. It was a producer thing.
Mindboggling choice...a Polish kid with a spanish accent. Jose woefully miscast. Watching him being tortured during the recording of " Maria" is one of the most painful things one will ever see.
Would that arm-around and kiss be considered a sexual assault these days? He didn't seem to sound traumatized by the event. Several things like that happened to me as a young man coming out in the gay community in the mid-80s (a fair amount of social affection but not a lot of "true intimacy" due to the HIV crisis), and I don't remember being traumatized by this type of interaction.
Going back to 53' 19", it reminds of Stephen Sondheim saying, or repeating someone else's theory, that past 50 a composer will not be able to produce a master-piece anymore.... Maybe that's why Bernstein never achieved greater success, or further success, after West Side Story?

Your costume had a big Lucifer lightning bolt, get it right.
Jerry Hadley was as good a Tom Rakewell as you could hope to hear, in an opera I don't particularly like. His death was a real sock in the gut.
Is it true that a terrible accident during rehearsal killed Jerry?
I don't know if it was during a rehearsal (it probably wasn't), but Jerry Hadley died after accidentally shooting himself in the head with an air rifle. He was put on life support after showing signs of severe brain injury, taken off life support 6 days later, and died 2 days after that.
It wasn’t during a rehearsal. Jerry
Was at home
RIP Jerry
@@AutisticSpaceman So sad
He killed himself. Blew his brains out
