Leonard Bernstein in Salzau - Part III: International Conductor's Competition and Master Course

The music special "Leonard Bernstein in Salzau" offers a lively and
fascinating inside look at the professional world of young conductors and
orchestral musicians in three one-hour-long programs. It also portrays one
of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, Leonard Bernstein, shown at
work with young musicians, challenging them, but also encouraging and
reassuring them. In Part Three, we follow four young conductors who are
given the chance to work with Leonard Bernstein and to go on a concert tour
with him. The youths are torn between fear and hope, disappointment and
triumph before finally submitting to the ultimate challenge of conducting
the orchestra under the watchful gaze of the maestro. "Beating time is
naturally very basic. Almost everybody can learn to beat¿ But what we are
looking for is not the beating of the beat, it is the beating of the
music." (Leonard Bernstein)
