		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;First and Lasting Impressions&#8221;, the new memoir by Julius Rudel, is a wonderful read for anyone interested in the Maestro and in the NYC Opera.

		<description><![CDATA[At one of Leonard Bernstein&#8217;s NORTON LECTURES at Harvard University in the 60s, the Maestro predicted that we would be soon approaching a great age of eclecticism in music. This was at a time when the avant garde was predicting something very different- that tonality as we knew it was certainly dying a fast death. [...]]]></description>
