Liberace (1919-1987), born Wladziu Valentine Liberace, had been formally trained in classical music, specializing in the piano. While he was an accomplished musician, Liberace's appeal came from his stage persona. Known as "Mr. Showmanship", he entertained legions of fans with his flamboyant costumes and jewelry, lavish sets (always complete with candelabra) and flashy playing style as much as with his music. Liberace appeared in nightclubs and had his own television show, The Liberace Show, which aired from 1952-1955.
