@1941cad I agree totally about Liberace. Not only was he one of our greatest performers but he was a kind and generous person who loved his audiences. It's wonderful that his music is being enjoyed by whole new generation, thanks to YouTube...

@2247mariamaria The name of this film is "A Song to Remember" c.1945.

@hedunlap...Just to clarify things; the Museum is not gone, and although the public areas were closed to the public, Liberace's things are still there. However, in Spring of this year they will begin a National Tour of Liberace's artifacts in St. Louis, MO. The exhibit will include, 20 costumes...

@ namuro01...To answer your question about sheet music for "I Don't Care"; the only place that had the sheet music for that song is in the Liberace Museum archives. I worked in that area for several years; however the Museum has since closed, sorry to say....You might check music stores, etc...

@ardentepatience ... I totally agree with everything you said about Liberace. He was an absolute gem; very sincere and kind and loved his fans. Over the years I saw many of his 'live' performances and I will never forget him. We are so fortunate to be able to enjoy him all over again, thanks t...

I'm quite sure there was a miniature piano with his name/logo. I bought one years ago at one his shows and the box was about the same size.

Sadly, the Museum closed about a year ago...however, they will put some of Liberace's artifacts on a National Tour beginning next Spring beginning in St. Louis, MO. Suppose to be 20 costumes, 3 pianos, 1-4 cars, candelabras & other collectibles, etc., audio & video footage & so much more...

@irpengu...Hello, to answer your question, the name of this song is "Memory", from the Broadway show 'Cats'. The 2nd song is "Send in the Clowns".

I'm so glad this is back on Youtube. One of the greatest/showman pianists of our day and who will never be replaced.

I once had this album and really loved it...One particular number that is especially great from this album is "Orchids in the Moonlight". Hope you upload it sometime. Thanks!

@justinlover4ev His piano teacher was a lady named Florence Bettray Kelly, but he also had a 17-yr. scholarship to the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music from the age of 7. He also practiced fervently for 4-5 hrs. a day as a child.

@nissaforyou This concert was filmed in 1983 at the Wembley Centre in London.

@michaelhenicker ... I totally agree; Liberace was a fabulous entertainer and kind person as well. He loved his audiences and brought pleasure to millions with his incredible playing. I knew him personally and will never forget him or his kindness. ...... (Note to Seadweller451D please remove ...

@Supre2000.....In what area did you work for Libeace? I knew him for a lot of years, too and knew most of the people who worked for him. I also miss him terribly but am thankful that he is now on YouTube for a whole new generation to enjoy.

Absolutely beautiful as only Liberace can play it.. The movie 'Somewhere in Time" is also one of my favorites as well, and even though it has a sad ending it is still a beautiful, eternal love story.

Great voice...one of my favorite singers. Wish he was still here with us, but thankfully we have these wonderful YouTube audios to listen to Matt's wonderful singing.

TODAY, MAY 16TH, WOULD HAVE BEEN LIBERACE'S 92ND BIRTHDAY!...(1919-2011)....HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE GREATEST ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIME....WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE BUT THANKS TO YOUTUBE, YOU ARE STILL HERE TO BRING PLEASURE TO A WHOLE NEW GENERATION OF FANS.....

@georgekane17 Well, I think Elton is more of a singer than a pianist, and which is why like most singers the piano lid is closed while they perform. I once heard Billy Joel comment that both he & Elton are 'pounders' on the piano, and make their fortunes from singing mostly....We'll never see an...

To The Copala5 - I totally agree with your comment about Liberace with this song. He can interpret a song like no one else...(check his 'I left my heart in San Francisco' sometime)....it gives me chills each time I hear him play that song.... It IS upsetting to see the Twin Towers as they were ...

A beautiful interpretation of a lovely inspirational song. You have the ability to bring so much joy with your marvelous playing. I also enjoyed the great camera work as well. Thank you David!

@ratnails You're not losing your mind. I heard the mistake, too, at 1:04.

@swingmusic001 That was beautifully said, swingmusic. I totally agree and this comes from a longtime fan beginning the in the early 60's when I first met him in person. In that first performance and meeting, he just captured my imagination with his charm and talent. A truly kind and gifted per...

@tucsonia Yes, I witnessed Liberace autographing photos including the piano drawing. He usually always tried to include it, if he was not rushed for time, that is.
