Carnegie Hall's Bernstein Mass Project

Reflecting and honoring Leonard Bernstein's role as an extraordinary educator, The Bernstein Mass Project was a key educational component of Carnegie Hall's 2008-2009 Bernstein festival. This project brought together hundreds of students to explore Bernstein's 1971 work and its themes of faith, doubt, tolerance, and renewal of tradition.

What an impressive project!

When I was in my teens in the '70s, I owned the original vinyl release of "MASS." It's so great to see young people still getting turned on by Bernstein's work in the 21st century.

If only schools everywhere could participate in creative art educational projects like this one! When young people are exposed and actively participate in the arts in a positive way like The Bernstein MASS Project, their cultural outlook is enriched for the rest of their lives.

Bravo! :)
