Thursday, March 30—My Go-To Place invites you to join Kurt Loeffler to explore the life and times of Liberace, the son of immigrants raised during the depression.   He was a child prodigy who established himself as a gifted concert pianist by his teen years and simultaneously supported his family by playing jazz and popular music in jazz bands, dances, gambling houses and strip clubs.  His natural skills for music, showmanship, and flair along with a lifestyle and dress which was often extravagant, created his iconic status in the history of 20th century music and earned him the title “Mr.  Showmanship”.
