Minnesota Public Radio Music Host Mindy Ratner talks with conductor Yakov Kreizberg about the renowned conductor/composer Leonard Bernstein. Kreizberg leads the Minnesota Orchestra in the second part of the Bernstein Festival, a two-week event exploring Leonard Bernstein's legacy as a conductor, composer, pianist and educator.
Bernstein is perhaps most famous for his "Young People's Concerts" and his interpretations of various classical work…he wrote "West Side Story," "Candide," and "On the Waterfront."
