Abstract
"Leonard Bernstein's greatness as a conductor lay partly in his unique power of infusing new life into the works he performed. Expecting maximum effort from his musicians, he was also unsparing of himself in getting the results he wanted. Fortunately the teacher in him means that we have, in these three overlapping programmes, the extensive rehearsal and documentary footage to demonstrate what was involved, as we see and hear him working on Mahler with two of his favourite orchestras, the Vienna Philharmonic and the Israel Philharmonic."--Container.
