Extractions: By Dr. Mark P. Malkovich, III, General Director of the Newport Music Festival A few years ago, I prevailed upon the Governor of Rhode Island to make Victor an Admiral of the RI Commodores. Knowing that he did not like surprises, I told him before he went on stage which was filled with several real admirals that he was about to be made an admiral. Without missing a beat, he answered, "I think thats admirable!" Of course, that play on words was Victor Borges genius right from the start. Like many immigrants, he saw the incongruities of the English language and capitalized on them. But his capitalization was pure genius. We had been good friends for so many years that I was in a position to remind him of things he had said in performance thirty or forty years ago. One I especially liked, and which he had forgotten, was when he spoke of Tchaikovsky. In Russian its spelled Chai He looked it up in the musical dictionary under "C" and it said see under "T" He then flipped the imaginary pages to "T," and he said, "T" "Liptons!" He laughed when I reminded him of that and replied, "I said that? Thats good." It was then; and still is. Victors twists were timeless, and he gave such pleasure to millions of persons. He was, indeed, the "Greatest Dane."

Extractions: Tuesday December 26 04:39 PM EST (E-Online) Victor Borge, the comedic musician who tickled not just sweet sounds from the ivories but sweet laughter from the audience, has played his final note. Borge died peacefully in his sleep Saturday at his home in Greenwich, Connecticut. He was 91. His daughter, Rikke Borge, told the Associated Press, "I think he brought laughter to every person he came in contact with. He had a long and happy life." In 1953, the Danish satirist's Comedy in Music opened on Broadway. It ran 849 performances, a record for a one-man show. It toured the globe and was revised on Broadway in 1964 and 1977. The musical wit's records, videos, CDs and books sold worldwide to generation after generation of fans. And he continued to perform into grand old age, also establishing a second career as a conductor with major orchestras such as the London Philharmonic and the Royal Copenhagen. Born Borge Rosenbaum in Copenhagen, he was a classically trained pianist who made his concert debut at the age of eight. But he said he never had "the application of the seat of the pants to the seat of the chair" to flourish as a concert pianist. In Scandinavia he also worked as a composer, actor and movie director before escaping the Nazi invasion of his homeland in 1940s.

Extractions: Victor Borge: The one-man Marx brothers http://www.jewishworldreview.com I SAW the obituary in the paper and laughed out loud. Not a very seemly thing to do at the death of a 91-year-old, but he would have understood. I can picture The Great Pianist now in white tie, flipping his tails before he sat down on a piano bench that wasn't there. Once again he was racing his poor page-turner through a too-familiar bit of music in a mad rush to the finish line. Or maybe sitting there drumming his fingers while the page-turner hustled and rustled to catch up. Victor Borge was young, then middle-aged, then old, but only in years. In his mind, he was always in his teen-aged prime. There were times when he would follow the music right off the piano, and then follow it himself. He was from a different, better-humored, sillier yet subtler era, and it was a great era to visit for an evening. After all those years we knew what was coming but not when, and somehow the musical punch lines never lost their punch. I'm not sure just how he did it, but the oldest act on the boards always surprised from year to year, even decade to decade.
