Leonard Bernstein (August 25, 1918 – October 14, 1990)
Leonard Bernstein was an American composer, conductor, author, music lecturer and pianist.
In the 1970s he did set of interdisciplinary lectures at Harvard University in which he borrowed terminology from contemporary linguistics to analyse and compare musical construction to language. The title of the lecture series "The Unanswered Question" was taken from a symphonic work by American composer Charles Ives.
