Victor Borge
Most of us take our favorite music pretty seriously, but in the hands of Victor Borge, music becomes seriously funny! I bring him up because, as I listened to “Dance of the Comedians” from Smetana’s opera The Bartered Bride this morning, I was compelled to do a quick search on line to see what I could find out about this popular favorite. What I found was Victor Borge on the podium, allowing audiences to enjoy great music AND a great laugh. I hope it gives your day the same lift it gave mine. –Boyce Lancaster
