Phonetically Speaking - And Don't Forget The Piano! [ORIGINAL

Phonetically Speaking - And Don't Forget The Piano! [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED]

Behind those stark facts lies the story of an exceptional man who entertained the world for most of a happily long life, indeed right up to his death. Victor Borge was the youngest of five sons born to musicians Bernhard and Frederikke Rosenbaum. His Father was First Violin with Copenhagen's Royal Theatre Symphony Orchestra but Borge chose his Mother's instrument, the piano, tinkling the keys from the age of three. He was recognised as a child prodigy and consequently, at the age of nine, was awarded a full scholarship to the Royal Danish Music Conservatory. At 13, he had his professional debut. A refugee from wartime Europe, Victor Borge quickly established himself as a radio favorite through exposure on the Bing Crosby shows. He had actually arrived in America barely speaking a word of English, but he not only quickly learnt the language, he also used its idiosyncrasies to create classic comedy sketches like 'Phonetic Punctuation" and "Inflationary Language", included here. In reality a highly skilled concert pianist, the piano became a musical tool in pursuit of laughter, as this wonderful in-concert performance proves, over 76 minutes of musical and comic mayhem.
