Germany's contribution is Ludwig van Beethoven, an eleven-hour series in which Leonard Bernstein conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in all nine symphonies and assorted lesser works. By the standards of commercial television, the American 60% is made up of generally low-budget productions: the dance troupes of Twyla Tharp and May O'Donnell, Count Basie at Carnegie Hall and Elizabeth Swados' musical reworking of poems by William Blake.
