orchestra21

Between score/part preparation deadlines and WCFSO auditions last week I managed to miss the anniversary of Leonard Bernstein’s birth. Never too late to celebrate though, so Lenny is front and center for the first in a series of orchestra21 giveaways – the book version of his Harvard lectures, The Unanswered Question. Simply reblog one of my Bernstein posts by the end of the day this Friday and you’ll be entered into a drawing for the book, pictured below. I will contact the randomly selected winner over the weekend to arrange for delivery.

And if you just can’t wait for the book to arrive, here is a clip from the actual lectures:
