This past Friday night, November 2, 2018 violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to celebrate the 60th anniversary of his first public performance.
Unlike most of us who debuted our music skills in the school music hall, 13-year-old Perlman was selected to perform on The Ed Sullivan Show, a TV show that aired worldwide.
To mark the occasion, Itzhak Perlman performed on The Late Show with fellow Juilliard School graduate, pianist Jon Batiste.
The pair played a medley of ‘Caprice in A Minor’ and ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’ on the same stage where Itzhak Perlman first performed in 1958.
