So, 'Copland, Bernstein' is really a fascinating concert film that captures a unique live performance set in the Giovanni Agnelli Auditorium in Turin. The way the RAI National Symphony Orchestra interprets Copland’s 'Danzon Cubano' is quite striking, and it flows nicely into Villa-Lobos's 'Bachianas brasileiras No. 2'—there’s a rich tapestry of sound that just envelops you. And then you have Bernstein's 'West Side Story' symphonic dances, which add an energy that contrasts well with the earlier pieces. John Neschling leads the ensemble with a deft hand, harnessing the various textures and dynamics of the orchestra to create a really immersive experience. The atmosphere is palpable, and the whole thing feels like a celebration of distinctive musical legacies. Worth a watch for sure, especially if you appreciate orchestral performances.
