Aired at prime-time on CBS from 1958 to 1972, 52 one-hour programs were written and hosted by Leonard Bernstein, "certainly the most influential American maestro of the 20th century" (The New York Times). With the New York Philharmonic and guest artists providing live music, these programs brought musical concepts and music history to life for generations of viewers. **Part What is Classical Music** Bernstein conducts Handel's Water Music and cites it as an indisputable example of classical music. "Exact" is the word that best defines classical music, Bernstein says, and he demonstrates it with musical illustrations from Bach's Fourth Brandenburg Concerto, Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 and The Marriage of Figaro, and Haydn's Symphony No. 102. The decline in classical music at the end of the 18th century is tied to Beethoven and the Romantic movement, and Bernstein conducts Beethoven' Egmont overture. ==See Also== [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_People%27s_Concerts|Wikipedia Site]] ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube> }} \\ ==Full Version== \\ ,,The availability of this link might be uncertain!,,\\ ,,Full version is available upon request.,, \\ {{ youtube>_2OisC_XfF4 }} \\ \\ \\ {{tag>FHD Art Music Classical Leonard_Bernstein New_York_Philharmonic CBS SER CBS_-_Young_People's_Concerts_-_Volume_1_(1958) 1958 ar08/22 Name}} \\
