When I received my Masters Degree in Piano from Juilliard back in the 70s, I remember talking to Oscar Levants Daughter, Lorna , who worked with the Registrar at Juilliard. I told her how much I admired her Fathers Pianism. ......Very nice lady.
What a great memory, Oscar was an incredible musician. Please do subscribe to this channel if you've not already, check out more material at the website, www.jolson.org, and consider joining the International Al Jolson Society for even more material and access to Jolson's legacy.
Two of the greatest of all time.
Indeed!
No one, before or since, had a voice like Al Jolson.
