Most people don’t become a star overnight. But Leonard Bernstein wasn’t most people. In 1943, the likelihood of him taking the stage as an assistant conductor at the @nyphilharmonic was pretty slim: he spent most of his time setting up orchestra rehearsals and checking on sound. Nevertheless, on November 14, the guest conductor got sick, the music director got caught in a snowstorm, and twenty-five-year-old Bernstein got his big shot. Bernstein’s conducting debut, broadcast nationally on CBS Radio Network, garnered rave reviews. A star was born. #Bernsteinat100
