Considered to be one of the most distinguished musical prodigy of the American music history, Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990) definitely is an unforgettable personality.

His first public performance was Brahms's “Rhapsody in G Minor,” and debuted solo in collaboration with the Boston Public School Orchestra. His passion to learn music continued as he joined Harvard and worked as an accompanist at the “Harvard Glee Club”.

He became the assistant conductor at the New York Philharmonic and his baptism of fire came unexpected when Bruno Walter, the guest conductor, suddenly fell ill. He took over despite the challenging performances which was nationally broadcasted, it was an instant success story!

His massive contribution to the American arts and culture was not left unnoticed as Bernstein was awarded the “Kennedy Center Honors”. He also produced and conducted several TV documentaries, delivered televised essays and the first conductor to introduce music to the mass TV audience.

Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837) was a talented composer, pianist and teacher notable for his contributions towards both classical and modern music.

His musical ingenuity was evident at a young age, and this was amplified being mentored by no other than the legendary Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

He eventually met Ludwig van Beethoven and became the best of friends but their friendship was eventually shaded as he was intimidated by the young prodigy. Nevertheless, they remained to be friends with mutual adoration and respect through the years.

His musical gift transcended to his students who later became some of the greatest and most prominent composers in history such as Robert Schumann, Frédéric Chopin, Adolf von Henselt, Sigismond Thalberg, Friedrich Silcher, Carl Czerny and even Felix Mendelssohn
