Victor Borge "Lost Episodes 2"

[@margitsallay7159]

Victor Borge a mostani fiatalokkal könnyem meg tudná szerettetni a klasszikus zenét ezekkel az előadásokkal.

[@MaRiaBlasko-g1j]

Love love love it.Seen him live 20 years ago.Unforgetable

[@Alxyzz]

He passed away 24 years ago

[@sandramyer7081]

[@theresiavansertima2075]

A total genious Was lucky to have attended one of his concerts in London.

[@lydiaweight3442]

Absolutely one of a kind. The best!

[@mariamoldovan7318]

Born so talented, for play piano, for comedy, ...born to be famos....and thanks for all...

[@briseboy]

No one is born "talented" = knowing how and it is all effort. We animals take joy in effort, or not.

[@cathysephton6917]

Hav been following for quite some time and my high light thru many high lights and thru some up s and downs. Thank you

[@sandramyer7081]

From Carnegie Hall with Victor Borge-❤- long time ago

[@hildamcclanahan648]

Love love love Victor Borge. I miss you.

[@kathyjenkins635]

Victor Borge was a great entertainer! I love 38:50 when Borge's protege, Jimmy Mahoney plays the Beautiful Blue Danube and I watch Borge's facial expressions- what a riot! Thanks for the laugh-I needed that.

[@eileengreco1180]

All I can say is he’s incredibly amazing, wonderful piano player along with his great comedy!

[@anthonyhaylock6655]

Victor is so hilarious , he is amazing

[@pawelsawicki1750]

What I really appreciate in Victor Borge shows is that almost all his jokes seem to revolve around "core" of the main theme, as if it was mostly result of mistakes and disorganization rather then script. So natural and effortless.

[@johnferguson8993]

Thank you so much for uploading this video. It's fascinating to see how he developed his comedy routines throughout his years and it's a real treat to see others work with him especially Leonid Hambro, one of the greatest pianists ever. There is so much fun in music and to see these Maestro's letting their hair down is really great. Victor Borge and all of those who worked with him will live in our hearts forever.

[@sandramyer7081]

I totally agree!

[@harryroestenberg4581]

Geweldig ! Wat een fantasie ! Dank u ! !

[@siegridthomas9674]

The GREAT DANE he was, he gave us so much pleasure, I wish he could have gone on forever, but it is not so.........

[@georgealderson4424]

It is a rare treat to hear Maestro Borge play a piece in entirety though I am not sure that the large choir was a good idea. Such a multi-talented man. May he rest in peace

[@declamatory]

He wasn't really a "Dane". He was a "Jew".

[@briseboy]

BOTH.

[@sandramyer7081]

He was very smart with his piano an tremendous talent

[@cathysephton6917]

Incredible.

[@deanaldridge4277]

This is so good, so funny, so true. Thank you very, very, much.

[@brianrussel6012]

(guest) I've only just found this episode...interesting to see how he developed his humour over the years. Not sure what year this was, but his hair was still dark..... I've mostly seen his later shows, thankfully here on KZbin, which were superb... " You should have been here earlier - you could have been home by now..." I think his humour was more "concentrated" , later on...I absolutely love it. In the 2 PIANOS part, Victor did what we saw later with Les Dawson and Morecambe and Wise : playing the wrong notes in a famous piece. Victor was the highest paid entertainer in USA at one time... Bless him for his genius in humour.... xx😊🎼🇬🇧🎹😊

[@Rodrigux08]

Genius Victor. thanks

[@Allen-ow6jn]

Borge and Anna Russell came to town back to back. I never laughed harder

[@hildamcclanahan648]

What a great talent ❤

[@KyotoMelody]

Thank you!

From Wikipedia: Victor Borge at Carnegie Hall, 1964, TV Special ABC

[@susanlorraineknox5780]

Fantastic!

[@johanbrand8601]

Thanks!!

[@RJ-ql6ff]

Very funny, clean jokes, excellent concert pianist. Multitalented. Impeccably dressed. Genius comedian.

[@lsmart]

Just great stuff. Sergi Franchi was very popular cabaret and musical singer through the eighties and nineties. Sadly, he died at 64 from a brain tumor.

[@sandramyer7081]

Who died? Franci or Borge?

[@lsmart]

@@sandramyer7081 Franci. Borge lived to the ripe age of 91, and still had 60 performances in his 90th year.

[@donnarouse5366]

That man is good he can keep a straight face!

[@harryroestenberg4581]

Niet te evenaren deze man ! Geweldig !!

[@FabioBezoari]

Victor please don’t stop your entertainment. Thank you Fabio Bezoari As a Sicilian and mafia member I suggest you not to stop your performances. Clear? Grazie Giovanni come stai? Spero bene e confermato Come stai Giovanni Spero bene e conferma Fabio .

[@briseboy]

Haters: be aware that recordings can be poor, unable to include the full harmonic series. The choir there at Carnegie Hall was likely impeccable. It was recording limitations and deterioration.

[@briseboy]

For those unfamiliar B flat major and d minor are the same key signature, and accidentals, which are used in minor scales, must be individually marked. So Victor's joke...they are the same.

[@michaelreeves1147]

The key-mixed Danube was the best.

[@TheBlueDaweStudioThirlmere]

Who else recognised the fugal theme from Mozart’s ‘Jupiter’ in the choral intro ?

[@nikolauszerfa3637]

Ich!:))

[@ZZJ2023]

These Carnegie shows of him have the very first ads implant probably.

[@eduardoguzman7936]

Does anyone recalls the name of the host of this famous program, He was very popular but I just don't remember his name ?

[@hildamcclanahan648]

Wake up, man, you’re missing the whole thing.

[@jasonbaylor9865]

That supposed "grand prix" looked about as agile as a small house

[@gretchenlhommedieu6352]

Jason, they really were awesome cars and smooth riding.

[@henrikhyrup3995]

"Do as you are toll...." God, that's so awful it's actually really funny. :D

[@Sytb01]

What piece is at 24:15 ? Scarlatti?

[@claranimmer7349]

The ballerina with hickups….

[@henningandersen9027]

From what year(s)????????

[@kurtkaufman]

1963 or 1964

[@johnferguson8993]

The ad for the car has a number plate of 1959, maybe that's the date of the show.

[@bethhentges]

The ad mentions a 64 Grand Prix.

[@stephenjenkins4803]

😂

[@johnwells4690]

There seems to be nothing to laugh at Any more.

[@declamatory]

Liberals?

[@briseboy]

What??? Is there no comedian in YOUR mirrors? (I did report the hate speech reply. Although we are ALL inadvertent comedians, hate is not comedy, but mostly just a cheap dagger with which one cuts oneself more than intended victims) I do invite more people to help erase hate comments, so we can get back to life's true purpose, comedy.

[@NickJay]

Choir were rubbish in the 2 piano section ... sounded more like wild dogs than a choir and he's obviously sponsored by the car company as he featured it in both part1 and this part ... Pontiac. Talk about deliberate advertising. hehe.

[@tubapic]

Yes, He was obviously sponsored by the car company. In the early days of television, that is how all shows were done.

[@RichardSchletty]

tubapic - Agreed! That's how it was done back then. What a great show.

[@stranraerwal]

Yes...so very very American..which means: rather superfluous and a bit tasteless. Mixing car-ads and classical music -you couldn't do that in Europe.

[@sabinecarter8208]

I quite agree ; that choir sounded absolutely ghastly ! !

[@declamatory]

Your anguish is palpable. Here's hoping that many years of counseling will help you.
