Product Description
Although Peyser does not write a hagiography of Leonard Bernstein as some of his fans would prefer, neither does she tear him apart unfairly.
I adore Leonard Bernstein. Yet finding out he was an egomaniac who pouted when he wasn't the center of attention does not take away my insane love for his talent, showmanship, and bravery. Peyser does her best to paint Bernstein as a real person with faults and blemishes. She also did her homework and gives an in depth account of his growth as a pianist, conductor, and composer, placing his concerts, compositions, television specials, recordings, and lectures in their historical context.
