If you are a Bernstein fan and love it played as it was written, this is the DVD for you. Enjoyed every minute.

[Highly rated reviewer]
Interupted entertainment
This a fine musical but better as a film than a stage performance where each song is followed by prolonged clamping which detracts from the whole.
