Findings is a book of extraordinary discoveries--self-discoveries, musical and personal treasures.  Bernstein's poetry, his essays and correspondence, his critical studies of music and musicians from the great classical masters to pop music and jazz, convey as nothing else can the incredible energy, talent, and genius of the man who more than any other person has confirmed the maturity and the originality of American culture. Findings also offers a rare and moving glimpse into the personal life of Leonard Bernstein.
