+On August 25, 1983, Leonard Bernstein celebrated his sixty-fifth
+birthday in his birthplace, Lawrence, Massachusetts.  He had actually
+lived in the town for only a few weeks as a newborn baby, and had last
+visited it forty-nine years previously, in 1934, to get the name on his
+birth certificate altered from Louis to Leonard.  But the citizens of
+Lawrence proposed to dedicate an outdoor theater to him in their
+heritage park and to provide not one but two local orchestras--the
+Merrimack Valley Philharmonic to play excerpts from his own compositions
+and the Greater Boston Youth Symphony and Chorus to perform the "Ode to
+Joy" and accompany Bernstein himself reading (for the only time in his
+life) the text of A Lincoln Portrait.  So Bernstein turned down birthday
+invitations from Tanglewood and Central Park, New York, and the
+Hollywood Bowl and drove through the cheering if slightly bewildered
+crowds lining the streets of Lawrence in an open-topped 1928 Ford
+roadster, looking as homespun as James Stewart in Frank Capra's classic,
+It's a Wonderful Life.

+The origins of the name "Bernstein" are sometimes linked with the German
+noun Bernstein, which means "amber"--a translucent yellowish fossilized
+resin, used for ornaments and thought to possess magical properties.
+Leonard Bernstein would later call himself "Lenny Amber" when he needed
+a pseudonym for the popular piano transcriptions he published in his
+mid-twenties, and his business affairs would be organized within a
+company called Amberson Enterprises.  There are several towns and
+villages named Bernstein in Germany and Austria (where the pronunciation
+is BernSTINE), but Bernstein's parents came from Jewish ghettos in
+northwestern Ukraine, where the last syllable is usually pronounced
+BernSHTAYN or STEEN.  Sam insisted, however, on the mid-European style
+employed by the earlier immigrants.
