In MAD MAESTROS, David Scheel pays tribute to the greatest eccentrics in musical history, in a hilarious mix of true stories and beautiful music. From the love lives of Liszt and Al Jolson to the world’s worst singers, the most accident-prone opera, and the testy prima donnas from classics to pop, the secrets of music’s nuttiest composers and performers are revealed, and illustrated with their music on the piano.
Discover what Percy Grainger told his fiancée on the eve of their wedding; find out how Toscanini managed to lose an entire orchestra in the desert; hear what Sir Thomas Beecham had to say about singers (and everything else), and much more besides!
MAD MAESTROS’ delicious mix of comedy and piano music is yet another illustration of why David Scheel is regarded worldwide as the successor to the legendary Victor Borge. A concert not to be missed!
