Why the honoree chose the book
Leonard Bernstein was a gifted composer, conductor and teacher who was a mentor and inspiration to so many of us who came of age as musicians during his lifetime. Bernstein’s West Side Story is a timeless work with Shakespearean roots and a contemporary relevance that remains powerful today. If you know this work but have never opened the score, I challenge you to do so. Discover its secrets.
