Three very different faces of Leonard Bernstein in one concert. The Overture to his opera Candide shows not just his virtuosity at orchestra but his wit and knowledge of bel canto opera too – it’s one of his most sparkling scores.
The Serenade, a philosophical reflection, is his violin concerto in all but name and has become increasingly popular in recent years.
Songfest, which Bernstein himself conducted at the 1988 BBC Proms, is an orchestral song-cycle for six soloists and orchestra. It celebrates many of the things closest to his heart in a dozen beautifully chosen poems, ranging from Walt Whitman and Edgar Allen Poe to Gertrude Stein and EE Cummings.
David Charles Abell, who worked with Bernstein during the 1980s, takes up the baton.

A rare chance to hear Bernstein’s song-cycle Songfest and his Plato-inspired Serenade in a concert launched with the fireworks of Candide’s Overture.

November 20th is an important date as it is the date in 1959 when the UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration of the Rights of the Child. It is also the date in 1989 when the UN General assembly adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Since 1990, Universal Children's Day also marks the anniversary of the date that the UN General Assembly adopted both the declaration and the convention on children's rights.

Mothers and fathers, teachers, nurses and doctors, government leaders and civil society activists, religious and community elders, corporate moguls and media professionals as well as young people and children themselves can play an important part in making Universal Children's Day relevant for their societies, communities and nations.

Universal Children's Day offers each of us an inspirational entry-point to advocate, promote and celebrate children's rights, translating into dialogues and actions that will build a better world for Children.
