Leonard Bernstein's Little Train

This is very cool: Leonard Bernstein & the New York Philharmonic play, and beautifully demonstrate, Villa-Lobos's "Little Train" movement from Bachianas Brasileiras no. 2. This is a masterpiece of classical music education, from the renowned Young People's Concerts series. Thanks once again to Rodrigo Roderico for posting this.

 


"That's the noisemaking department back there." Here, from the Library of Congress, is Bernstein's list of the interesting percussion instruments Villa-Lobos uses.
