I think there's a speech in the intro of "Classic Concertos", something like "I'd like to return to the classics", do you think you could post it? I'd like to hear it.

@hitmusicsingles I just went back and looked at the concert. There is NO intro to the Classic Concertos medley.

He does talk about returning to the classics before he plays Chopsticks....

@showmanlee I don't think it's Chopsticks, it doesn't have the speech I was looking for: "And now for my next number, I'd like to return to the classics. Perhaps the greatest classic in all the world of music."

[showmanlee]

@hitmusicsingles That IS the phrase Liberace would use before he would play Chopsticks. He used that particular phrase for years and years.

He wants to build the audience up....make them think that by saying "and now for my next number, I'd like to return to the classics. Perhaps the greatest classic in the world of music"

Then he would say, "Yet I have been told that this is the first time this number has been performed with the (whatever) orchestra."...or place

If people would only notice how few entertainers dress as tho they are real Entertainers these days, Showmen or Show-women. Notice how remarkably Elegant Liberace's attire is here. He was quite a teacher for those with the I.Q. to be able to comprehend his talents and skills as both a Showman and a Pianist.

I always loved watching Liberace when I was growing up, and never tired of hearing him. Excellent performer!

whats the name of the second number?

[Accurate4103]

Liberace would have made a fine concert pianist. Fortunately he chose to do greater things with his talent and mastery of the keyboard. As a result he became the most famous pianist of the second half of the twentieth century. He brought classical music out of the snob world for the masses to enjoy. He became a household name from the 50's through the 80's.  No one else had a greater impact on the piano world than he did during that time.

[pianist1951]

He is truly an artist and a master of the piano!

[pianopeart]

The first is tchikovsky's piano concerto no.1 in B flat minor :)
