Perhaps best-known for the musical West Side Story, composer Leonard Bernstein was one of the most accomplished and influential musicians of the 20th century. For fifteen years, beginning in 1958, Bernstein attempted to turn the youth of America on to music through a series of televised performances called Leonard Bernstein's Young People's Concerts. This episode was originally broadcast on Christmas Day in 1967 and includes renditions of 3/4-time pieces by Mozart, Beethoven, Mahler, and both Johann and Richard Strauss. Leonard Bernstein's Young People's Concerts: A Toast to Vienna in 3/4 Time features solos from Christa Ludwig and Walter Berry. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi
