A good humored, respectful tribute to the "King" of the Keyboard, Mr. Showmanship with a live performance of one of his most-requested showpieces, "Rhapsody In Blue" by George Gershwin.

http://www.jonengland.com for Jon's biographical details.

Eager to please his audience, Liberace scaled-down the infamously long and complex original to the most popular and familiar segments of this jazz-flavored classic. Jon's own interpretation mirrors the masters' method and presents here a fun-filled and tastefully-personalized interpretation of his own - set in a story unique to Jon yet reflective of the undoubted influence Liberace's playing has clearly had upon him.

This "live" performance captures the spirit of Jon's ocean-going concert-giving activities - here seen aboard Holland-America's flagship the M.S. Rotterdam on a recent "Grand Voyage" across the Pacific Ocean from Tahiti (French Polynesia) to San Diego (U.S.A.)
