NotesIn 1952. Liberace brought his concert-honed sense of showmanship to the emerging world of television. Almost overnight, the Milwaukee-born pianist became a national phenomenon, sustaining his popularity as a TV star for years to come. Syndicated across the country, the "Liberace Show" proved to be a ground-breaking TV musical series. For decades. Tapes of these historic programs have been in storage, unseen and unheard. Now the Liberace foundation for the Performing and Creative Arts is releasing a series of audio highlights of the "Liberace Show" for the first time. These performances capture Liberace's charm and virtuosity in perhaps their finest recorded moments. Backed by an 18-piece orchestra led by his brother George, he masterfully glides through a repertoire that mixes many diverse tunes and melodies. Beyond the musical performances themselves, Liberace: The Golden Age of Television, offers a sampling of Liberace's warm, intimate way with his television audience. His introductions and between-song comments that are included on this album provide insights into his unique rapport with his fans. Whether he's sliding into a humorous number or paying tribute to his musical heroes, Liberace's crowd-pleasing touch comes through. Since his passing in 1987, Liberace has left behind a legacy of entertainment few will ever fill. A missing chapter in his legendary story has been restored with the release of this series. Liberace: The Golden Age of Television is a rare glimpse of a one-of-a-kind talent at a truly historic moment.
