Leonard Bernstein - Young People's Concerts: What Is Classical Music?

Bernstein conducts Handel's Water Music and cites it as an indisputable example of classical music. "Exact" is the word that best defines classical music, Bernstein says, and then explains that “classical music” accurate refers to music written mainly in the eighteenth century. He demonstrates with musical illustrations from Bach's Fourth Brandenburg Concerto, Mozart's Concerto No. 21 in C Major and "The Marriage of Figaro," and Haydn's Symphony No. 102. The decline of classical music is tied to Beethoven's innovations and the Romantic movement, and Bernstein conducts Beethoven's Egmont Overture.
