Leonard Bernstein's Young People's Concerts with the New York Philharmonic stand among his greatest achievements. These televised programs introduced an entire generation to the joys of classical music. Bernstein conducted his first Young People's Concert on January 18, 1958, just two weeks after becoming Music Director of the New York Philharmonic. Such programs were already a Philharmonic tradition when Bernstein arrived, but he made them a centerpiece of his work, part of what he described as his "educational mission." Looking back on the concerts years later, he referred to them as being "among my favorite, most highly prized activities of my life." When he took a sabbatical season from the orchestra in 1964-65, he still came back to lead the Young People's Concerts. He continued to lead these programs until 1972, even though he had stepped down as director of the Philharmonic in 1969. Bernstein led a total of fifty-three Young People's Concerts during those fourteen years, and covered a broad range of subjects. The works of the great composers were explored, including tributes to modern masters such as Dmitri Shostakovich, Paul Hindemith, Gustav Holst, Aaron Copland and Charles Ives. Bernstein discussed "Jazz in the Concert Hall," "Folk Music in the Concert Hall," and "The Latin-American Spirit." He explained the intricacies of Music Theory in programs such as "Musical Atoms: A Study of Intervals" and "What is a Mode?" He broached complex aesthetic issues such as "What Does Music Mean?" (his first program) with clarity and without condescension. Bernstein also used the Young People's Concerts to introduce young performers to the musical world. The sixteen year-old pianist André Watts made his debut in the concert of January 15, 1963. Originally broadcast on Saturday mornings, the programs were considered so important that for three glorious years CBS presented them at 7:30 p.m. (prime time for television viewing). Eventually the programs were moved to Sunday afternoons. The concerts were translated into other languages and syndicated to forty countries.

Laminating the Pieces of Homemade Paper Together

!±8± Laminating the Pieces of Homemade Paper Together

Using the homemade paper will make your craft projects will be more extra special, but what if the one of a kind paper will be not thick enough? As an alternative to make the thicker paper from your scratch, you are able to laminate together the two or even more pieces. You may also laminate the different homemade papers together in creating the single sheet with the two distinctive sides. This process will require a few tools and will be easy in customizing to suit the needs. Here is more information for you.

For the first step, you can cut the paper to the right size. After that, determine the size or even shape that you want of the laminated paper, and then cut all of the sheets to the similar size. You can use the utility knife and also ruler in making the precision cuts.

For the second step, you can dampen the paper. The homemade paper will tend to expand in any direction, and it will be not difficult for you in controlling when you are applying the adhesive. After that, spray the paper by using the light mist of the water that will help it loosen up. When the paper is dampened, ensure that you work quickly in order to make sure that it does not dry out.

For the next step, you need to load the brush with the glue and also stipple it over the surface of the paper. Stippling can give more control over the total of adhesive that you apply to your paper, and it can create a textured surface for another piece of your paper to the grip.

After that, align the second piece of your paper on the top of the glued-out sheet. You need also to check the alignment with the mini triangle. Then, place the flat side of a triangle flush against the edges of the papers and also adjust as the needed.

Then, you can work over your adhered paper with a bone folder. Just begin from the center and also push toward your edges. You need to wipe away all the beads of the adhesive with an edge of your finger.

For the last step, it is important for you to wrap your laminated sheet with the waxed paper and then place between the boards. Top with the weight and then dry overnight. If you do not have the boards, you can use the couple of your heavy books.
