This 60-minute program honors the great American conductor, pianist and composer Leonard Bernstein as a teacher.
It assesses his importance, his credo and his sense of obligation to pass on to following generations what he himself learned and experienced. Leonard Bernstein saw himself as a link in a long chain of musical tradition leading from Koussevitzky, Mitropoulos, Reiner and Copland to himself and on to a younger generation represented by Seiji Ozawa and Michael Tilson Thomas, and to the youngest musicians he particularly enjoyed teaching, those who were still dreaming of a career.
The film shows Leonard Bernstein as the great "roaming rabbi" of music and love, two concepts which were synonyms for him, just like learning and teaching. We see the great musician who offered his knowledge without reservation and was still developing himself in his last years, eager to learn from other artists. The film also shows Bernstein during rehearsals with orchestras, with famous soloists (e.g. Krystian Zimerman), in conversation with friends and pupils and at work in Vienna, New York, Tanglewood and Salzau.

The comic misadventures of Sir John Falstaff, adapted from "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and "Henry IV" by 'William Shakespeare' . Sir John Falstaff and his rascally friends, Bardolph and Pistol, are partying at the Garter Inn in Act I. Jack, of course, can't afford to pay for his food and drink, so he plans to seduce Alice Ford and Meg Page, some wealthy wives of Windsor town. These two ladies meet Alice's daughter Nannetta and Mistress Quickly and discover that they have received identical love letters from him. They decide to teach him a lesson. Ford also learns of Falstaff's plan and plots with young Fenton (who loves Nannetta) to take revenge on Falstaff. Ford speaks to Falstaff disguised as Fontana, saying that he wishes also to seduce Alice but wants Falstaff to corrupt her first. Fat Jack visits Alice, but the tryst turns into chaos when Ford and the other men storm in. Meg hides Jack in a laundry basket. Alice orders the servants to dump the dirty linen, Falstaff included, into the Thames. Ford realizes his wife is loyal and they all have a good laugh. Act III opens with Falstaff washed up on the river bank. Wet and sorry for himself, he wishes to get drunk and grumbles about the wicked world. The Fords and their friends are not through punishing him yet and plot to disguise themselves as fairies to scold and frighten him. At last Falstaff repents and, through a series of comic mix-ups, Fenton and Nannetta are united and all live happily ever after. Written by Fiona Kelleghan <[email protected]>
