Pat Boone - Very Best Of Pat Boone - VINYL LP

Recognized for his intense richness of tone, remarkable technique and exceptional musicality, the Russian-born violinist Artur Kaganovskiy was discovered at the age of six and mentored by the renowned violinist Isaac Stern. A graduate of The Juilliard School studying with Masao Kawasaki, he was also first prize winner of the Waldo de Mayo Competition and recipient of the Fritz Kreisler and Joseph Fuchs Awards at The Juilliard School. Artur Kaganovskiy made his Carnegie Hall debut at the Stern Auditorium in 2007, performing Elgar's Violin Concerto with conductor David Gilbert and members of the New York Philharmonic. Since then, his solo engagements have taken him throughout Europe, North Americas and China, collaborating with orchestras including the Napa Valley Symphony, Bilbao Symphony Orchestra, and the Salzburg Chamber Soloists to name a few.

Pat Boone or Elvis Presley? That was the burning question on the lips of Fifties teen America. Certainly, the two were the most successful solo artists of rock's breakthrough years. But while Presley was the good-looking 'white kid who sang black', Boone was married, God-fearing and covered hits by African-American artists to chart-topping if unthreatening effect. Elvis, of course, is no longer with us though his image and influence will never fade. Pat Boone is still alive and there's no doubting he was responsible for some of the best-remembered classic pop of the era.
