"Can't Help Falling In Love" - & Other Pop Hits Borrowed From Classical Greats

The Variety Attic with Nick & Glenn

Join us, Nick & Glenn, on this special podcast where we look at - and listen to - songs from popular twentieth century music - which were taken or borrowed from great classical works, dating as far back as the eighteenth century.

As we delve into various twentieth century songwriters, and their brilliant adaptations of classical pieces from Beethoven and Chopin, to Debussy and Puccini - we compare and contrast the original composition, with the updated pop gold hit.

As always, we discuss, reference and enjoy audio clips of such 20th century musical artists as Elvis Presley, The Toys, The Mindbenders, Della Reese, Perry Como, Judy Garland, Tommy Dorsey, and others - as well as listen to many of the original classical compositions.

Music and entertainment is what this podcast is all about - so give it a listen.
