Leonard Bernstein conducts The Brahms Symphonies Nos. 1 - 4

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,”
