This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Leonard Bernstein. To mark the occasion there are numerous festivals to celebrate his life and music. Since Bernstein was one of the most important musical figures of the 20th century I thought we could share some info on his life and music on here. I have to admit embarrassing that there's much about him that I don't know. His music has been very influential and known around the world. If you ever get a chance to watch video of him conducting you will find him one of the most charismatic personalities and so enjoyable to watch.
