Ahh... Victor you are my all time hero. Someday I will be 1/450th as good, and hopefully have as much fun as that.

Like him very much, especially his reading ofg the letter with interpunction sounds, his best!, and the opera with the big tenor not being able to hide behind a tree and that enormous soprano, and of course his Liszt 2nd rhapsody with his Armenian or what was it secondant at the piano, him banging the lid down on the final chord, HILARIOUS!

Ah yes the mozart opera about the tree and stuff where he sings is great.

He was a true entertainer and a true pianist.

Also, his way to say: 'don't touch the piano!!!!' to an unwary singer is not only funny, but so right! once, a violinist put her cup of tea (I hate tea!) on my piano, I said to her: I wouldn't dream of putting my glass of whisky on your violin....message understood, thanks to Borge
