Leonard Bernstein conducts the Brahms Symphonies

Leonard Bernstein conducts all four Brahms symphonies with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

“What makes music symphonic?” asked Leonard Bernstein in the course of one of his celebrated Young People’s Concerts. He found his answer in the music of Johannes Brahms: “He grows his music, like a master gardener … With Brahms music doesn’t just change, it changes beautifully,”

This collection includes all four Brahms symphonies with Leonard Bernstein, conducting two of his favorite orchestras: Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and Boston Symphony Orchestra.
