October 14, 2005 marked the 15th anniversary of Leonard Bernstein's death. This lapse of time has only served to secure Bernstein's prominence as one of the most respected musicians of the 20th century and to affirm his reputation as a master conductor, composer, and teacher. Among his many achievements, Leonard Bernstein is remembered as one of Gustav Mahler's most inspired advocates. While few today can imagine a classical music landscape without Mahler, it is doubtful that Mahler would have attained such a prominent place in performance repertoire without Bernstein's promotion. Bernstein wrote and lectured extensively on Mahler and his compositions, effectively putting Mahler on the cultural map while bringing his own distinctive - many would say defining - interpretations of Mahler's music to the forefront. ~ Alexandra Day

Symphony No. 1, titled "Titan", is one of the shortest, and probably the most accesible, of all the symphonies Mahler wrote. Describing Nature, the work features its awakening, a lively dance, a parodic funeral march of a fallen hunter, and a stormy finale that ends triumphantly. Bernstein and the prestigious Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra amazes us with his charming yet powerful interpretation.

Symphony No. 2, titled "Resurrection" begins in tragedy and struggle, and ends in one of the greatest, and most touching, anthems in Classical Music history since Beethoven's "Ode to Joy". While not as impacting as what Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic did in the 80's for DG, watching him leading the London Symphony Orchestra at the Ely Cathedral will make you quiver, pray, and at the end, burst in tears. The chorus is incredibly powerful by the finale; at one point as close as bursting the microphones picking up the sound!
