From the very first notes on the clarinet I still get a thrill when I hear this piece. The legendary Leonard Bernstein both conducts and plays the piano. A true American masterpiece.

^He was very good with his hands. At least that's what dad said, right before he walked out in fish net stocking and fuck-me pumps.

the violinist sitting behind the piano (watch@1:50) looks a lot like "dr. Frasier Crane" - got front row tickets

I'm cry-ay-ay-aying. Thanks for the quick fix. Noisy or not, this is one of the greatest pieces of American music ever made. It should be part of high school curricula just like Twain and Faulkner.
