    I am from Xi'an, China, Xi'an Concert Hall is going to perform Leonard Bernstein's operetta this late August, they are having a guided class now in the concert hall, and they've just played this video! I really appreciate this video, it's fantastic, being able to summarize the plot of Voltaire's Candide and expressing it clearly must have been difficult, I don't usually leave comments but this time I've got to! Thank you for making this series! I will check other videos later! :)

    I remember reading it in school twice and I never properly understood the criticism (like why even bother making 11 year olds read this?) nearly twenty years later, it feels like my brain is finally ready to see the parallels with todays society and the meaning this work actually carries. You inspired me to read it for a third time! Haha

    IRREVERENT HERETICAL ASYMETRICAL AND DOWNRIGHT HIGH-STERICAL! BRAVE --- that would be bravo only to the women involved -- you have women behind the camera lens performing duties unseen perhaps, yet somehow known, due to an unidentifiable intruder,. Koonie-gahnda, I will never say or think that name without choking on a chicken bone, or dying from laughter! I digress or regress?

      Garrett Medina uhh I don't know , I made my comment as a joke and your political view point or someonelse's doesn't really bother me. So, hooray for john kerry, Ross Perot, and whoever else, I guess. You can nominate Harvey the rabbit for all I care. People will vote it will be counted and then appearantly not matter and the upper .5 percenters will move their pieces on their monopoly game board. Our job is to figure out how to enjoy life while enriching our own and aiding the next person to be able to do the same. So live well, love your familly, care for others and encourage the best from people instead drawing off the downside for negative based motivation and relations disposition. I'm not sure but I think Dr. Pangloss would agree.
