Leonard Bernstein (August 25, 1918 – October 14, 1990) was an American composer, conductor, author, music lecturer, and pianist.
He was among the first conductors born and educated in the U.S. to receive worldwide acclaim.
According to music critic Donal Henahan, he was "one of the most prodigiously talented and successful musicians in American history."
His fame derived from his long tenure as the music director of the New York Philharmonic, from his conducting of concerts with most of the world's leading orchestras, and from his music for "West Side StoryPeter PanCandideWonderful TownOn
the TownOn
the Waterfront", his "Mass", and a range of other compositions, including three symphonies and many shorter chamber and solo works.
Bernstein was the first conductor to give a series of television lectures on classical music, starting in 1954 and continuing until his death.
He was a skilled pianist, often conducting piano concertos from the keyboard.
He was also a critical figure in the modern revival of the music of Gustav Mahler, the composer
he was most passionately interested in.
As a composer he wrote in many styles encompassing symphonic and orchestral music, ballet, film and theatre music, choral works, opera, chamber music and pieces for the piano.
Many of his works are regularly performed around the world, although none has matched the tremendous popular and critical success of "West Side Story".
Like That
Like That may refer to:
A Boy Like That
"A Boy Like That/I Have A Love" is a song from the 1957 Broadway musical "West Side Story", with music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.
In the musical, the song is sung by the characters Anita and Maria.
For the original Broadway cast recording, the song was performed by Chita Rivera (Anita) and Carol Lawrence (Maria).
In the 1960 film version the roles were played by Rita Moreno and Natalie Wood, but the songs were dubbed by Betty Wand and Marni Nixon (as both Anita and Maria).
However, the repeat of the two stanzas, sung by Anita, along with Maria's counterpoint of her defense, was omitted because of the complexity of the song, as well as to avoid the repetition, which would have slowed down the pace of the film.
In 2010, Lin Manuel Miranda and Raul Esparza performed the song at Broadway Backwards, an annual Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS showcase of show tunes sung by different genders.
Miranda played Anita, while Esparza played Maria.
