    Indeed! I was told for his final performances at Radio City Music Hall he had oxygen tanks back stage so he could continue on. He gave of himself tirelessly. It saddens me greatly when I hear people slander him so, without any real knowledge of the man behind the legend. The world is a better place for Liberace having been in it!

      LIberace was once asked how he'd like to be remembered, and he answered,
      "...as a kind and gentle soul, who had made the world a better place to live, because I had lived in it." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED LEE!

    The only artist I know of that actually shows that he really enjoys playing the piano. Just by the way he really puts himself into the tunes. And when he plays the music flows from his hands onto the keyboard producing excellent music.

    Liberace LOVED music and PLAYED music with LOVE. NOTHING like the boring singers, rappers, so called "artists" of today. They are SO dull in comparison to this enormous talent. No Beyonce, Taylor Swift or Justin Beiber can hold a match to him. They are 8th rate music makers compared to him. HE was a musician: they are not musicians but people who TRY to be musicians.

      Liberace was a very talented and passionate musician. However, that doesn’t mean musicians like Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, ect. Aren’t talented musicians who aren’t passionate in what they do. Anyone who truly appreciates and loves music realizes that all music is art. Opinion shouldn’t get in the way of that. I could’ve worded that a lot better but struggle to at the moment.

      I thought it was my age that General pop music is a drag. They mess with the volume and everything else. You don’t have to be able to sing or read music. It’s really sad. The younger people are missing out. My parents restricted our music. Outside the house I would sneak it. Liberace was allowed. Had they know he wasn’t straight, I would have never heard him.
      Check out David Garrett’s music. He’s another master.
