Leonard Bernstein (born Louis Bernstein on August 25, 1918, in Lawrence, Massachusetts – died October 14, 1990, in New York City) was an American conductor, composer, and pianist of international renown. Considered one of the greatest musicians of the 20th century, Bernstein left an indelible mark on the world of classical music, popular music, and musical theater. After studying at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, Bernstein made his conducting debut with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra in 1943, replacing conductor Bruno Walter at the last minute. His talent was immediately recognized, and from that moment on he established himself as one of the most respected conductors in the world. Bernstein is known for his passionate and innovative interpretations of classical works, but he also composed original music of great success, including the soundtrack to the musical *West Side Story* (1957), which earned him a Tony Award. Other important compositions include the orchestration of *Candide* (1956) and Symphony No. 3 *Kaddish*. In addition to his musical activities, Bernstein was also a brilliant communicator and cultural disseminator. His television program *Young People's Concerts*, broadcast by CBS in the 1950s and 1960s, introduced classical music to millions of children worldwide. Bernstein was also an activist for civil rights and a supporter of peace.
