As part of our Bernstein centennial celebration, the Library reconsiders the question “What is American Music.” After listening to a historic WNYC recording of Bernstein and his contemporaries, a diverse quartet of contemporary music makers, including Vijay Iyer, Gabriel Kahane, Tania Leon, and Julia Wolfe, gather around the piano to discuss a new definition for what is American.
