There's a Place For Us: The Musical Theatre Works of Leonard Bernstein

There's a Place For Us: The Musical Theatre Works of Leonard Bernstein

Helen Smith

Leonard Bernstein was the quintessential American musician. Through his careers as conductor, pianist, teacher and television personality he became known across the US and the world, his flamboyance and theatricality making him a favourite with audiences, if not with critics. However, he is perhaps best remembered as a composer, particularly of the musical West Side Story, and for songs such as 'America', 'Tonight' and 'Somewhere'. Dr Helen Smith takes an in-depth look at all eight of Bernstein's musical theatre works, from the early On the Town written by the 26-year-old composer at the start of his career, to his second and last opera A Quiet Place in 1983; in between these two pieces he composed music for Trouble in Tahiti, Wonderful Town, Candide, West Side Story, Mass and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. These works are analysed and considered against a background of musical and social context, as well as looking at Bernstein's other orchestral, choral and chamber works. One important aspect examined is Bernstein's use of motifs in his theatre compositions, which takes them out of the realms of Broadway and into the sphere of symphonic writing. Smith provides an indispensable overview of the musical theatre works of an eclectic composer, and shows what it is that constitutes the Bernstein 'sound'.

Growing up as a Black male with a single mother in Watts, South Los Angeles has almost become a surefire clich for trouble, crime involvement and all of its attendant traps. However, follow the life of narrator, Nathaniel, who was born in 1965, and see how he has defied the odds. His parents separated when he was a baby. Yet, his life was far from a statistic. With the help of a strong, praying mother, a close-knit community, and a church family, Nathaniel had the support needed for a young African American male coming of age in a dangerous world. As the African proverb says, "It takes a village to raise a child." When Nathaniel's mother died when he was 20 years old, his somewhat estranged father became more involved in his life, picking up the baton where his mother left off, and successfully helping him navigate the shoals into Black manhood as he becomes part of a true love story.
