Violinist for
The New York Pops who has had some success on Broadway as well as in the
recording studio. He appears on
the Broadway soundtracks of Beauty
and the Beast and My One and Only
and with the Warner Bros. Orchestra on Bugs
Bunny on Broadway, a collection of musical skits from the hit cartoon
shows.
George has
also recorded with Nnenna Freelon
on her 1994 release Listen, Lynn
Roberts on Harry, You Made Me Love
You, and Frank Sinatra on his 1979 box set, Trilogy.
You can
frequently find him in the Christmas spirit: In 1991, he performed in a Christmas
concert at Larchmont Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York. A year later, he appeared on the
rather ungainly titled Merry
Christmas from Doc Severinsen and The Tonight Show
Orchestra, and later popped up on Leon Redbone’s 1998 Yuletide
offering, Christmas Island.
