Carnegie Hall Video History by Nadia Kovarskaya
From Nadia Kovarskaya, founder www.MeetMeAtTheOpera.com
Andrew Carnegie always has been my hero as I love business and passionate about fine arts. There are two biggest achievements of the 21 century to my opinion : Google and YouTube. They help me creating Video History of my favorite House in New York City – Carnegie Hall and to say my special “thank you” to the greatest philanthropist – Andrew Carnegie. Right now it’s “a work in progress” and it’s not finished yet – I shared this now with public to get some feedback from the audience. And here the story of Carnegie Hall begins…

Storyline:
A mother (Marsha Hunt) wants her son (William Prince) to grow up to be a pianist good enough to play at Carnegie Hall but, when grown, the son prefers to play with Vaughan Monroe’s orchestra. But Mama’s wishes prevail and the son appears at Carnegie Hall as the composer-conductor-pianist of a modern horn concerto, with Harry James as the soloist. Frank McHugh is along as a Carnegie Hall porter and doorman, and Martha O’Driscoll is a singer who provides the love interest for Prince. Meanwhile and between while a brigade of classical music names from the 1940’s (and earlier and later)appear; the conductors Walter Damrosch, Bruno Walter, Artur Rodzinski, Fritz Reiner and Leopold Stokowski; singers Rise Stevens, Lily Pons, Jan Peerce and Ezio Pinza, plus pianist Arthur Rubinstein, cellist Gregor Piatigorsky and violinist Jascha Heifetz.
