Happy Birthday begins at 1:32.
This video is from a Young People’s Concert conducted by Leonard Bernstein. “Happy Birthday” was played in honor of Igor Stravinsky’s birthday.
Today is my birthday, so I wanted to hear this.
Enjoy!

Happy Birthday, Gretchen. I remember enjoying the Young People’s Concerts as a child.

Thanks, Steve!
I love watching the beginning of this video, seeing a crowd of enthusiastic kids running into Carnegie Hall for the concert.
