Evanston Symphony Orchestra

"Virtuosic Piano. This short arrangement and performance are stunning spectacles, both musically and technically. It was often used as an encores by Gyorgy Cziffra, who created the arrangement!"

"This video is extraordinary, because it demonstrates how important the face of a conductor is to an orchestra. Leonard Bernstein is using ONLY his face to portray the musical meaning of the piece. No arms! It also reveals how many emotions are actually contained in a piece of great music!"

Larry: “Especially since this is a Beethoven year, this riveting finale of his String Quartet Op. 59 #3 is captured with an equally riveting video.”
