Victor Borge Minneapolis - playing the second piece from Friedman-Gärtner's 6 Viennese Dances.

Victor Borge Minneapolis

Ignaz Friedman made this waltz. Another YouTuber found the correct one and we can now say: It is the second piece from Friedman-Gartner's 6 Viennese Dances and dedicated to Monsieur Isidore Philipp and is marked "vivo e sciolto"

The note sheets can be found here:

There's a piece that he plays after these waltz's that he calls "Danish Lullaby", been trying to find it everywhere. Anyone know what its name is? Or know what I am talking about haha

@KurtRussell720

I think you mean a 'medley of Danish folk songs'.

Amongst these 12 different small melodies are 2 that is in fact are Lullabyes. At 3:49 It is "Den lille Ole med paraplyen" (The little Ole with the umbrella) and you will find it here:

And at 4:20 is Hans Christian Lumbyes' "Drømmebilleder" ("Imaginary" Pictures of dreams)

@markoserengeti

I think you missed the obvious place which is here on youtube.

If you click additional info under the video you will find 2 links. The note-sheets is the first

Good luck

It is dedicated to Monsieur Isidore Philipp and is marked "vivo e sciolto", if that helps. I can't post a link, right?

[mugge62]

Thanks numberonefilmfan. I have added your information to "more info".

You can only post links if you use a user channel's more private "send a message" (if it is open for use by the channel-owner.)

he's so effortless..this piece is tremendously difficult.

[wschmrdr]

Yes Victor Borge was definitely a comedian, but this definitely showcases what I feel is the better of the two talents. He was a maestro at the piano.

[fargoteddy4u]

I absolutly love Victor one of a kind still sad he passed my idol!!!!!!!!

[easkay]

Maybe some of you can help me out, given that you have this entire show on tape. Does anyone know the names of the pieces (assuming they were composed) that follow the danish medley up until Träumerei?

[Neclord2007]

@KurtRussell720 HI, the Danish Lullaby after the waltz on the tape is written by a composer called fini henriques and the song is called vuggevise (or lullaby in english). Here's a link to a version on the cello watch?v=R5MoUBpQAY0 ...a very beautiful piece indeed and my personal favourite.

He jokes about playing Chopin (Waltz A flat Op. 42) he's just joking around almost, and yet he plays it better than anyone I can find on youtube. Tragically, everyone seems to equate speed with good. But the accentuation in just that little bit of Chopin he plays is just really marvelous. Pity he didn't play the whole thing as the next piece (which I didn't like).

@mugge62

No, I know what he's talking about, I have this whole performance (on VHS!) and it's a piece, I believe, he said his mother played. I can't find it anywhere online either, so I might have to go blow the dust off the ol' VCR.
