Description: Piano wizard Phil Ohman (1896-1954) was among the most popular entertainers of the 1920s and 1930s. He developed a remarkable technical proficiency and acquired a thorough grounding in classical music. In 1919, he found employment at the QRS Piano Roll Company, where he met his future musical partner, Victor Arden (1893 - 1962) As a piano duet team, Ohman and Arden made a name for themselves in vaudeville, small clubs and recordings. Their innovative harmonies, sparkling virtuosity, and toe-tapping rhythms won them remarkable success in musical comedy appearances. In 1924, they were featured in the pit orchestra for the Gershwin musical Lady, Be Good, the first of many shows in which they were involved. In addition to their piano duet recordings, Brunswick Records also invited them to front a large studio dance orchestra, which recorded exclusively for Brunswick and later Victor records. The duo also appeared in several Vitaphone shorts and worked on several radio programs, such as the American Album of Familiar Music, The Buick Program and the Bayer Music Review. The 7 CD Victor Arden and Phil Ohman series includes the majority their phonograph records. The recordings span the period from 1926 to 1935. These include piano duets and records with Orchestra accompaniment. There is always ample room for the duet team to display their virtuosity. Also included are several radio transcriptions. It is interesting to hear how the interpretations changed during the different recorded versions of their performances. All selections have been digitally restored Vintage Recordings.
