Program Note by Ohlone Wind Orchestra concert program, 10 November 2013 It features two of the show’s big tunes: the sweeping, romantic one is Candide’s and Cunégonde’s love duet Oh, Happy We, while the wacky, up-tempo music is from Cunégonde’s fabulous send-up of coloratura-soprano arias, Glitter and Be Gay. Brilliantly written and scored, flying at breakneck speed, it pumps up the adrenaline of players and listeners alike. “There’s more of me in that piece than anything else I’ve done,” he said.įrom the very beginning, though, the overture was a hit and swiftly became one of the most popular of all concert curtain-raisers. In 1989, the already seriously ill Bernstein spent his last ounces of vital energy recording a new concert version of the work. With each revival, Candide won bigger audiences. The critics had rightly noted a marvelous score, and Bernstein and others kept tinkering with the show over the years. Bernstein was less concerned over the money lost than the failure of a work he cared about deeply. Candide was perhaps a bit too intellectually weighty for its first audiences, and closed after just 73 performances.
