Today I came across some shocking statements from L.Bernstein on Beethoven's quality of writing music (regarding orchestration, melodies, harmony,...). I always considered Bernstein to be among my favourite 3 conductors, but his statements on Beethoven presented and criticised here are just rediculous. What has driven him here?
