Maestro’s Music with Fran Hoepfner

Cannes I Kick It

Leonard Bernstein is one of the most important musical figures of the 20th century. He is also the Maestro, as explored in the upcoming film MAESTRO, directed by noted weird guy Bradley Cooper. We wanted some more context before MAESTRO makes its way across America, so we turned to America's preeminent MAESTRO authority, FRAN HOEPFNER! Together we do some light previewing of the film, and dig into a range of Bernstein's composing works: ON THE TOWN, SYMPHONY NO. 2: AGE OF ANXIETY, ON THE WATERFRONT, and CANDIDE.
