Jag älskar Victor Borges enorma musikalitet och komik! En av världens största entertainer som utbildade all världens folk i de underbara genren klassisk musik och vaudeville humor ❤
Although I have seen Mr. Borge several times and I am extremely impressed how he is able to perform all his acts like they are fresh, unrehearsed and improvised.
He speaks very good and clear Swedish with accent, we understand 100 %. If he speaks Danish we have to listen very carefully and 10 % of the words are completely different from Swedish. For Finnish people who speaks Swedish it's almost impossible to understand Danish.
"Verdi, Wagner ... Hitler..." -- subtle gallows humor *and* he improvises *classical* music (or 'style'). What a treat -- as a Finn -- to live in Iceland, to barely understand Danish, to barely understand his Danish-spoken Swedish, to enjoy Victor Borge -- barely -- without subtitles. This bit has made me understand the special relationship -- and culture -- the Germanic-Nordic languages share that we Finns are (surely) missing out. -- Huge thanks for the upload ...!
I agree ... usually love watching Victor Borge but at gone 10 minutes, not finding it at all funny ... in fact he gets up too often and the same gag gets boring and repetitive. Not much laugher from the crowd either. Shame. Might get better from hereonin but I won't be sticking to it without subtitles or understanding a damn word.
He sounds more fun when he speaks English, and much more fun when he speaks Danish. I speak all 3 languages so I should know:) Borge was in Stockholm already in 1939 and 1940. In 1940, Denmark was occupied by Germany, so he fled from Sweden to USA that year.
- on the very ship arranged by president Roosevelt to take the Crown Princess Märtha of Norway and her children (among them the present king Harald 5th, then 3 years old) secretly to the USA where they were to stay in safety during the war. Officially the ship was announced to take US citizens back to their home country. As the USA at that time was neutral, the hope was that the ship would not be attacked by german forces.
Victor, with his sure understanding of psychology, perfectly captures the Swedish sense of embarrassment and clumsiness, along with their whimsical sense of humor.
Well, he talks kind of Swedish :) It´s a clear Danish accent. The two languages are very similar in grammar and words anyway. But Danish sounds more like if you have porridge in your mouth when talking ;)
23.19 forslagene kommer helt klart fra nogle, der er bedt om at komme med netop disse forslag paa forhaand. Hans fantastiske symbiose af de forskellige sange kan umuligt være improviseret. Derfor er vittighederne i forbindelse med navnene heller ikke improviseret!
'Gysingevisan' from Finspång. The origin is not completely clear. Anders Olin is a possible composer of the song 1806, but the local blacksmiths may also have hummed the song, some of whom originated in the Netherlands.
There's a coloured 1962 caption right at the start - at top left. Presume that's the right date ! Hope you enjoyed this - but subtitles would have helped .. P

That's the way things look improvised. By being well rehearsed.
I've read a lot of his life, Borge seldomed
pre rehersed a show. He wanted it fresh with the symphony, performers, and audience. Amazing talent

No he doesn't xD I can barely understand him.

Maybe its your fault

His special kind of humor is fantastic!!
Härlig, ”enkel” och bra underhållning!
Hans humor er tidløs
Sounds like a drunk skåning and I love it

@@erik-nm5cf Thanks for the info, very interesting!
what an entertainer...
Avsnittet när han spelar publikens "önskelåtar" är suverän underhållning.
Det tar aldrig slut dethär.. fortsätter i evigt
En tokig Dansk bara, Sann humor.
Omg visste inte att han kunde prata svenska!!
Victor, with his sure understanding of psychology, perfectly captures the Swedish sense of embarrassment and clumsiness, along with their whimsical sense of humor.
thank you for informing me of my own taste in comedy.
/An actual swede
Say what..🙄

swedish sounds better like this
According to Norwegians it's a potato lodged in the throat. But who am I to argue, I'm Polish.
In Finland we also talk about potato... When you learn to speak Swedish, you just need to put a potato in your mouth, it turns into Danish... :D
Ha ha ha thanks, from Denmark :-D
Jag skulle säga att han pratar väldigt bra svenska.
"I play with both hands, then it won't take so long"
4:00 yay, skåne!!
❤❤❤❤
it like´s a mr. Bean on piano...

Have you seen Atkinson play air-piano btw?

We need English subtitle!!!! Please!
I could sub it as a comment but it's one hour so can't XD
He is danish!
Who played together with Victor Borge?
clearly is this the Rowan Atkinson's inspiration.
is that a statement or a question?
Getting inspired by Rowan Atkinson???
And having died in 2000 ?
How would that be done?
@@hildegardderbal5908 I'd imagine he meant the other way around. Atkinson was inspired by Borge
@@petermernagh9991 thank (Y)
39:27 can i have the name of this song pls ? Such beautiful
Underhållning på elitnivå. Istället för skiten dom gör idag
Sån här underhållning kräver personlighet och utbildning vilket han hade suverän
Dang, no subtitles...and Gramps refused to teach us Swedish. Pity.
amazing, when was this ?
00:00 1962
@@Mrpallekuling thanks :D 3 y later
7th of April 1962 in Sthlm. The same day Robert Wells was born by the way :D
What's the name of the song he starts to play at 5:25? A Chinese waltz?
Turns out it was "Charmaine"
It's called Charmaine (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charmaine_(song)) and has nothing to do with China.
when is this recorded?
+valandhol hedin It is recorded at Musikaliska akademin i Stockholm 1962.
Vad heter låten han spelar vid 5:24 ?
Meta
What did he play in the end?
'Gysingevisan' from Finspång.
The origin is not completely clear. Anders Olin is a possible composer of the song 1806, but the local blacksmiths may also have hummed the song, some of whom originated in the Netherlands.
What is the piece at 17:00?
Clair de Lune by Debussy
Which year is this concert from in Stockholm?
There's a coloured 1962 caption right at the start - at top left.
Presume that's the right date !
Hope you enjoyed this - but subtitles would have helped .. P
21:16 쉬바??ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ계속 시바시바 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Det vid jeg ikke at han ku' taler svensk!
38:20 Vad heter låten?!?!?!?!?!? :D
+Emilia Backstrom
Its Harry Lime Theme (The third Man)
+8pianoplayer1 taaaack :D
🎉 obviously they were very few comedians during his time. I mean he🎉 has same "jokes" in 1962 untill about the time of death. Sad
Too much pacing, too little time for music!
Swedish? Sounds rather like jiddisch
Hör liket talar
What kind of remark was that???
