So successful were Bernstein’s Young People’s Concerts broadcasts, that they ran on TV for more than a decade, were dubbed into more than a dozen languages, and syndicated in over forty countries. This book brings back into print a classic collection of fifteen of the best of those lectures, presented in full, including: What Does Music Mean? What Is Classical Music? Humour in Music; What Is a Concerto? What Is Melody? A Tribute to Sibelius; Berlioz Takes a Trip; and eight other classics.
