1973 series of lectures regarding the phonology, syntax and semantics of music. Absolutely fascinating if you have the time to listen.

I will save these for later, when I have that kind of free time...Bernstein is a genius, so warrants everyone's attention!

Also, I got confused briefly, because I saw the title, "The Unanswered Question" and thought I was about to hear the piece of the same name by Charles Ives...

You are the hero My Little Remix deserves, not the one it needs.
So we’ll hunt you. Because you can take it. Because you’re not our hero.
You’re a silent guardian of music, a watchful protector of songs.
A doctor of dissonance.

The lectures are actually named for, and to a point inspired by the Ives piece in question.
