I attended a NY Philharmonic concert at Carnegie Hall led by Leonard Bernstein sometime around 1960. I was there because there was something on the program I wanted to hear, which I don't remember now. Also on the program was the Nielsen 5th Symphony, which I had never heard, nor had I ever heard of Nielsen. I was about 18 years old and I was just blown away by that music and, as you can see, I remember THAT being on the program. Bernstein knew what was good and he taught all of us about Nielsen and Mahler as perhaps no one else could have. For me, this is one of Bernstein's greatest contributions. And yes, he wrote some fantastic music (I personally think that Candide is his masterpiece).

As a contrabassist I played the Candide overture with various orchestras countless times. It's an incredibly inventive piece, and at times rather difficult.

I know the studio recording of this symphony they made at the same time, but didn't realise the concert had been televised. Thank you! Bernstein obviously relished the honour and the (one time?) opportunity to conduct Nielsen's music with Nielsen's own orchestra. It was around this time he started conducting Mahler in Vienna too. Because of the orchestra, this performance is rather more idiomatic than Bernstein's New York Nielsen recordings (if not quite as polished) -- if only they had recorded more Nielsen together... The presentation of a wreath and the little brass 'Tusch' at the end is a nice touch -- there's a tradition it's sad to have lost.

thank you very much again for this very clear post. I have loved this work and interpretation after I was introduced to this as a teenager in 1977. I had been waiting in vain for the chance to watch this live and was so thrilled to watch the NY Philharmonic and Alan Gilbert play it that having brought my daughter to watch it with me, I went back again the next day to see it again as the NY Philharmonic had not programmed since Bernstein did in 1965 or 66. I had also not realized how loud the orchestra sounded giventhepriomnent role the brass play throughout nearly the whole symphony

The form and mood reminds me of Shostakovitch. This is the first recording I ever heard of this work. It was on vinyl LP disc back in the early 70s when I was announcing on KLEF-FM in Houston. There was sort a Nielsen revival taking place at that time.

He was in Copenhagen to receive the Sonning Prize as part of the Nielsen centennial celebrations, awarded to him in recognition of the New York Phil performances of Nielsen's 5th Symphony (and the LP recording, released the previous year). I guess in return he agreed to conduct Nielsen's orchestra while he was there, with the wreath presumably part of the occasion associated with the Prize.
