Description:

[Leonard Bernstein (1918.8.25-1990.10.14) was a star conductor who shared popularity with Karajan in the 20th century.) His passionate, emotionally charged, and soulful performances drew the sympathies of many, and he was loved by many with a charismatic following. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of his birth, 50 titles are being released in a limited edition in UHQCD format with green color label coating and sound quality specifications. The Sixth Symphony in traditional form is a symphony in which the fate motif appears consistently, both movements are full of tragic mood, and the hammer blow in the last movement makes a strong impression. Bernstein conducted the Vienna Philharmonic in this performance, which is a straightforward expression of romantic lyricism and intense inner conflict. Hampson sings solo in "Songs for a Lost Child," which is also included in the coupling. Special program for the 120th anniversary of DG [Performed by] Thomas Hampson (baritone: 2), Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Conductor: Leonard Bernstein Recorded: September (1), October (2), 1988 in Vienna (live recording)
