"To people who take music seriousIy, l'm a musician.
To people who don't take music seriously, l'm a comedian.
To people who don't take anything seriously, I'm a clown."
A rare chance to see Borge the wit, Borge the pianist and Borge the conductor.
lnternationaI musician and comedian Victor Borge is captured at his hilarious best in this concert at the Grand HaII, Wembley Conference Centre, recorded in 1979.
A chiId prodigy who gave his first piano recital aged eight, the Copenhagen-born Borge moved to the US and combined his musicaI prowess with a penchant for comic one-Iiners, in a unique cross between stand-up and high art.
Recorded live, the concert features the seventy musicians of the Wren Orchestra, led by Rolf Wilson. AIso appearing is American coloratura soprano, MaryIyn Mulvey, winner of the New York MetropoIitan Opera Company nationaI finaIs.
Packed with his trademark double-entendres and double-takes, this is a laugh-out-Ioud show from the master musicaI wit and 'comedian of the keyboard'. |
