I don't know if you've seen this, but anyway here it is:

Grieg on the subway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gww9_S4PNV0

I particularly enjoyed this since this is one of my favorite pieces of Edvard Grieg, perhaps the most cherished composer in Norway.

Enjoy the music!

Just putting this here, not necessary to start another thread on it since this is about music as well.

Watching this clip, think about how a literal understanding isn't always right!

Victor Borge is my favorite entertainer of all.

I'll take MJ, but I do love Victor Borge.

Borge had a way of being "respectfully rude". I remember how he asked the audience to name their favorite composers so that he could play a piece by those composers. The lady who answered first shouted: "Sibelius!" Borge, apparently not knowing any pieces by Sibelius, quickly replied: "Who asked YOU!?"

He was also a very gifted pianist. Very musical and passionate playing.

I enjoyed watching this, Eirik.

Thanks for this treasure!
