 | | Bernstein's score was much admired, however, and one of the most attractive numbers, "Glitter and Be Gay," was sung with great effect by Barbara Cook, one year before her Broadway triumph in Meredith Willson's "The Music Man." "Candide" has been revived continually since 1956, at least twice by producer Hal Prince. |
| | Bernstein's music was not eligible for an award because it had not been written for the screen. |
| | Among Bernstein's many other works was the score for the Marlon Brando movie, ON THE WATERFRONT (1954), for which he was nominated for an Oscar; a jazz piece, "Prelude, Fugue and Riffs," premiered on U.S. television by Benny Goodman in 1955; and "My Twelve Tone Melody" written for Irving Berlin's 100th birthday in 1988. |
