From Carnegie Hall, Isaac Stern, Benny Goodman, Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra, Van Cliburn and Roberta Peters salute Jack Benny...a virtuoso with a violin. Benny demonstrates his violin prowess with Stern.
When Benny is billed for a concert, two things will happen; singular violin playing by Benny and a wad of dough for a musicians fund. Musicians thank Jack at this one-hour Carnegie Hall concert. Violinist Isaac Stern does the honors. Benny Goodman and his sextet play, and Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra accompany Stern, pianist Van Cliburn and soprano Roberta Peters.
