M the MG, I saw Elmer Bernstein conduct the L.A. Philharmonic, during the show, 'Night of the Composers', at the Hollywood Bowl, in the early 60's, where the show featured many different composers, conducting and performing their pieces. The power of that piece, 'Magnificent Seven' was one of the first times, that I FELT, in an outdoor venue, music 'push the air'....it truly was magnificent!!!!!! The ground shook!..and you could FEEL the music, as well as hear it!!! Ernest Gold was there, and conducted 'Exodus', and it did the same!! Truly an unforgettable night!!!!!!!!
I can experience it, to this day!!
