As a prominent conductor, composer, commentator and music educator,
pianist, and writer, Leonard Bernstein has inspired numerous
scholarly contributions. Being a composer of both concert music and
musical theater, his output encompassed many different facets: from
small-scale instrumental character pieces to symphonies, musicals
to operas, pop songs to art song cycles, as well as ballets, film
music, and Mass, a work that does not fit any category. Historical
Dictionary of Leonard Bernstein contains a chronology, an
introduction, an appendix, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries
encompassing people whom he befriended or worked with,
institutions, orchestras, performance venues, cities, compositional
methods, and compositions. This book is an excellent resource for
students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about
Leonard Bernstein.
