Singer's Versatility
Kelspn Eddy reveals his versatility as a musician in "Bittersweet." He accompanies Jeanette Mac Donald at the piano in both duet and solo numbers, plays the violin in the cafe sequence
and leads an orchestra. We are told that only his violin technique needed polishing for the film, as ho frequently accompanies himself on the piano while rehearsing. It seems a pity that these unsuspected abilities of the singer have not been given greater prominence in his earlier pictures.
