I leave the film sad. My son who is in his twenties didn't know nothing about Bernstein. Bernstein worked so much during his whole life, but in the film he just appears as a pevert man who had multiple lovers. The personal life was too much emphasized and his talent and work was in a second plan.
Bernstein was truly a force of nature. The Rite of Spring is one of my favorite works, and it was great to see Bernstein go over its points with the young orchestra. I was surprised that he invoked dinosaurs: from Fantasia? And here I've been trying NOT to think of dying dinosaurs when that passage is played! Oh well, if it's good enough for Bernstein . . . Thanks for posting.
This is amazing. Watching the Maestro work with these young musicians is captivating. It's a wonderful insight into his methodology, as well as an educative breakdown of the work itself. Thank you!
I've come to appreciate the process of arriving at a performance via rehearsals, as much as a final, polished performance. This, in both music and drama. Or in Wagner's case, a conscious fusion of them both.
Absolutely incredible to watch
A difficult piece of music for players and listeners alike, but Bernstein manages to explain it in his educational way. Brilliant interpretation.
I don't know, man, as far as modernist pieces go, the Rite's a pretty easy listen, an absolute bop. Still hell to play, though.
Such a difficult piece of music to play. Well done those young musicians under the guidance of the great Leonard Bernstein
22:08 Bernstein calls a company break with a joke. Fantastic move.
These kind of videos and experience weren't part of the movie "Maestro", INCREDIBLE.
This is where he shines. Honest work with students.

Glad you enjoyed! 👍
Unvorstellbar - so ein großer Meister - und gleichzeitig so cool und tiefenentspannt und volksnah .
A great conductor of instrumental ensembles convinces their musicians to sing with their instruments, thus giving the music humanity and LIFE!!!!
Oh my god. Finally someone posted the whole thing. Thank you!
Awesome!
I totally loved all of this. It's applicable in all music.
Phenomenomal mind. One of the best recording of the many.
Talented musicians!
The young Yo Yo Ma is playing the bassoon here...;-)
Contrabassoon 😎
42 minutes!? Thank you!

There was also a video of the students preparing Le Sacre intensely before LB arrived.
这才是真正的大师传奇记录

The rehearsal process, especially under the direction of a great speaker and conductor, is magic 🪄
I wish they did this with John williams rehearsing ep 3 of star wars and hook and et and many others
Totally agree. Though, I think there may be a little behind the scenes disk that comes with the Episode 3 CD!
At 39:32 he mentions David Lynch’s Blue Velvet.
To bad he was not there in 1910 in Paris .
35:49 Duke Ellington lick
You cut the corrections, which are actually the most interesting part of the video. Does anyone have the original? Thanks.
This is the most complete footage I could find.
Thanks!!!! @@MrMayAllDay
I do set out to trim the best parts. You got me. Darn!
I’d love to know what these young people went on to do with their music!
Somebody mentioned below that one of the bassoon players is a young Yo Yo Ma!
@@SergeantPancake Yeah…I think that was a lame attempt at humor
@@johns3106that was funny you old fart
Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival?
4:25 Lol what was that cut 😂
I believe it was in the original. If not, I messed up in the editing booth...
Bernstein was cool before Barbie was a thing.
The flutes and piccolo?? Wtf?
What about them?
@@MrMayAllDay just amazing!! I love it
@ExxylcrothEagle ABSOLUTELY!
He was a saint for them. Something they'll never forget. However, a little heavy handed on the sexuality.
He looks like he's hung over....
Wnat a genius but it's too slow
It's a rehearsal!
@@andrewculwell707 I know but Bernstein got slower as he become older. I prefer his performance with the London symphony
You do have a point that Bernstein lingers more with age. However, this could be amplified by the fact it is a rehearsal.
@@MrMayAllDay Keep in mind pulling out more sonically is not unheard of as conductors age. Klemperer is perhaps most famous.
