Victor has just finished conducting at one of his 80th birthday concerts and the crowd reaction was so good that the violinist, Anton Kontra, suggests an encore. No encore was planned but Monti's Czardas, which Victor had heard before BUT HAD NEVER PLAYED, is suggested. ...

Victor Borge improvising on the piano
We have loved Czardas, ever since Cuban violinist,
Jamie Jorge told the story of his college talent show in Chicago.
Jamie described his growing discomfort as rock group after heavy metal band dominated the stage.
Jamie tried to get out of playing, thinking no one would appreciate this music.
His friend convinced him to stay.
They gave Jamie a four minute standing ovation.

Ah yes, a true Master will never be at a loss. It looks like they both had a grand time playing together, as well. Thanks for that.....
