As noted by others below and even in the article itself, Bernstein wrote were some songs, far from a full score for a musical (and none of the songs were for Peter) and some incidental music, and Trude Rittman made contributions to the music as well (which I think is not noted in the article, but Times articles are now difficult for me to read, even though I'm a subscriber).
If you do buy the more recent recording, the booklet has major errors regarding the history of the piece. |
