"Of all the many musicians who inspire me, it s Leonard Bernstein who turns up, more or less every day, by my side, over my shoulder, reminding me of what a musician can be. Of what music can do in this world - how it can reach and teach and make things happen. Just remember what happened to American music when Lenny came along, everything he changed. He never stopped searching, questioning the status quo, redefining the possible, imagining the future. Something s coming... This album is a tribute to Lenny's vision for American music. The artists who join me here - the composers who have written new Anniversaries for Lenny; the performers who sing and play and reimagine his songs we re only here together at all because of the rules he broke and the doors he knocked down, the future he imagined. We come from all over the landscape of American music, from bluegrass to beatbox, conservatory to cabaret, the Met to the multiplex. Because of Lenny s legacy, there s a place for us.
This is a celebration of his life, his music and his imagination. It comes with joy and gratitude - for Lenny, with love. Lara Downes"
