Bernstein: Symphony No. 3 "Kaddish"; Chichester Psalms Composer: Leonard Bernstein Performer: Karita Mattila, Patrick Ivorra, Masao Takeda, Michelle Norman-Webb Conductor: Yutaka Sado A more approachable Kaddish than Bernstein's own versions, at a very attractive price. Don't expect Leonard Bernstein's Symphony No. 3 to be as approachable as On the Town and West Side Story. Like Mass, it's not at all an easy work to come to terms with - in a sense, we aren't meant to do so, because it deals with Bernstein's difficult and unresolved relationship with his Jewish scholar father and his father's Judæo-Christian God, both of whom he simultaneously loved and hated - or, at the very least, with whom he maintained a strenuous, questioning and critical argument. The Holocaust and the death of President Kennedy also enter the equation. The first performance took place in Israel, shortly after Kennedy's assassination and the work is dedicated to his memory.
