The world should be thankful that he survived the holocaust and experienced not only his talent as a gifted pianist and gifted man of comedy who was able to know how to make people laugh not at a joke but life. Robert Merrill was an excellent vocalist and seeing them both together brought back to me wonderful memories.

I really consider it a shame that young cell phone handicapped 'whatever' generations are not aware of Victor Borge's classical music. After so many years I keep finding things he did. They are funny and inspiring.

Victor Borge was a gifted and brilliant pianist. He could have easily stuck to the well worn path of performing as a concert pianist but, thankfully, he chose to add humour to his music and made it accessible to millions more. His wonderfully expressive face and great delivery and timing - plus his creativity- capped it off and kept us laughing. My father was a gifted pianist and Victor Borge was his favourite performer. I’m thankful he was able to see him perform in person. 🎹

@nancysherburne7445 Жыл бұрын

That thought crossed my mind as well. We certainly know Mr. Merrill can perform Autumn Leaves with or without Mr. Borge accompanying him on the piano.

@deanronson6331 9 ай бұрын

Merrill was mainly facing the audience, so his chances of keeping a straight face were greatly increased.

He Was Incredible. I sang at his synagogue many times and we got to know each other a bit. He came to me after the High Holy Days and complimented me on my singing. He figured out by my name that I Wasn't Jewish and he kidded around with me about that. In fact I was trained by a Cantor to sing in Hebrew. Bob said something to me that I will never forget. I understood exactly what he meant when he said that my singing was Excellent, and very moving. He told me that my singing had heart and meaning and that I sang as though I carried the 4000 years of Jewish persecution in my soul. ! I will never forget him. He also joked with me and I with him about singing the US National Anthem....he famously forgot the words once, I think at Yankee Stadium. I also was called upon to sing the National Anthem at many ceremonies on Long Island. He would ask me if I forgot the words yet? Great memories!

If you told me the Robert Merrill was Robert DiNiro's brother, I might believe you, except that Merrill never used filthy language to describe people with whom he disagreed, politically. Merrill never knowingly gave offense. DiNiro does not care who he offends.
