@VINYLTOVIDEO I have the Movie Song O My Heart on a commercial VHS Video tape . bought it long ago. It may have been sung for the movie especially, don't know about that.

Quite a unique and one of a kind video I'm sure. Video recording concerts in those days just wasn't done as it cost too much money. Was this an actual concert that was recorded and used by Fox or was it staged? Looks much better than most concert performances shown in movies. From what I'm seeing and hearing here it's a real shame he wasn't still singing opera at this time! A great performance of one of my favorite Irish songs.

Is the pianist Teddy Schneider?

Do you know if this movie is available on DVD?
The concert was staged specifically for the film 'Song O' My Heart'; the only time an audience was actually paid to listen to the great man. I wish I had been one of them.

It is indeed Teddy Schneider, John McCormack's loyal and trusted accompanist of 25 years. Taken from the film Song O' My Heart, the concert sequence is a marvel!
