Thanks! I feel privileged at this generous moment - authenticity. He lives his music.
I wore this OUT when I was in high school. Memories! I became a jazz musician thanks in part to Harry and this DVD. Thank you!
If only I could have seen this concert!
I just love watching & listening to the music if Mr Harry Connick Jr. He’s one of a kind! He’s got a lot of himself so sincerely out to everyone. He’s a great gift to humankind! ❤
Fond memories of working on this show in Dallas in 1990: my intro to Texas Film Production and all the fine folks who work in that industry.
Cheers to Great Performances and WNET. This was a terrifically fun production to be a part of. 😊
Thank you for uploading/sharing! I first saw this when it aired on PBS back in the early 90s! I have the VHS “somewhere”. 🥰
Adam and Jeff,
yes.... I too owned the VHS. with the changes in technology I've lost track of it. As a young man I fell in Love with Roger Ingram's playing from this videotape. Thank you to Gretchen for making this available.
I remember watching this on VHS when I worked at Blockbuster Video (yes, that dates me) and loving the solo piece at 28:48. Great musician.
That was “Avalon” and quite possibly my very favorite Harry Connick Jr. solo piece ever. So glad to see it preserved here. 😊

Thank you for this! I had the VHS for years, then my wife had the great idea of tossing a bunch of our tapes with the thought that we would replace what we wanted with DVDs. I haven’t been able to watch it straight through in a long time. Other TH-cam videos show individual songs, but they’re disconnected and don’t include some of the banter in between.
You’re a hero.
Thanks for posting! Every couple years I would check to see if it was here. PBS used to play this heavily for their fundraisers, 30 years ago. Then it just disappeared.
Harry kinda looks russian with his hair wcked out like that. I like his accent tho. It's very clean for new orleans. I live in new orleans, im from down the bayou tho, but you don't hear people talk this clean.
I was there for one of the two nights during which this was recorded.
