"...every once in a while we have feelings so deep and so special that we have no words for them and that's where music is so marvelous; because music names them for us, only in notes instead of in words." ~ @LennyBernstein, 1958 Hear more: bit.ly/b100_ypc1

Replying to @lauritzen_brian
Also, and this is ⚠️super important⚠️: look at the Young People's Concerts. One is built around Project 19 and celebrates music composed by women. Another is called "Music as a Change Agent" and highlights "composers whose music impacted major social issues of the day."

“I know of only two ways to pray: one is to say #thankyou and sing a song. The other is to pray that... our capacity to love... may never be extinguished as long as we inhabit this wonderful earth with one another." ~@LennyBernstein January, 1985, "Hope in the Nuclear Age"

.@LennyBernstein stepped on stage -- and TV screens -- this week in 1958, asking deceptively simple questions that would change the way we think about music. In this first televised @nyphil Young People's Concert, he asks: "What does music mean?" Watch: bit.ly/b100_ypc1
