At 89, Victor Borge is still carning accsiades.
The comedic pianist performed at the Orpheum Friday. It was

his 43rd appearance in Vancouver —— far short of the 849

rfor-

mances on Broadway when he made theatrical history with his
Comedy in Music, which still holds the Guinness record for the
longest running one-man show, yet impressive enough to carn
him a brass plaque near the Crpheum stage door and a tribute
‘from Vancouver impresario Hugh Pickett before the sold-out

show.

Borge did not disappoint his fans, many of whom came bear-
ing roses for the “Great Dane.”

Several minutes into the show, the silver-haired and tuxedoed -
Borge had yc? to play a single note on the black Steinway at cen-
are stage. But of course, that’s the maestro’s-appeal — that he can
hold a crowd witb his comedic genius. Though he would do well
to retire many of nis jokes, which are surely older than most of his
fans (“At seven I wrote my first symphony, At 13, my parents
burned it.”), the audience howled with non-stop laughter.

Like any good composition, his show had a theme that
recurred throughout. Perhaps in anticipation of his 90th birthday
next January, the elegant showman proceeded to narn every
piece, from Beethoven symphony to Mozart minuct, into strains
of Happy Birthday.

Borge was born Borge Rosenbaum in Copenhagen in 1909.
His father, Bernhard, was a musician in the Royal Danish Chapel.
Borge had his piano debut at 17 in Copenhagen and bnmediately
his talent was recegnized. Though classically trained, he soon
became known for his ability to make his audiences laugh.

His barbs about Hitler were not appreciated by the Nazis who
invaded his homeland, however, and in 1940 he fled occupied
Denniark for the United States, where he has lived now for more
than half his life. His adopted country will honor him with a spe-
cial birthday cclebration at Carnegie Hall in 1999. His native
Denmark will mark the occasion with a series of events this
November.
