Click to watch a video clip of a scene (with music by John Sawoski), from a film called Showboy, which recently aired in 40 million households in the US. In this scene, the lead character tours the Liberace Museum in Las Vegas and fantasizes about playing a piece that sounds like something Liberace would play (actually composed and performed by John Sawoski). Most of the film score is composed by Daniele Luppi, who receives screen credit for the score. (John Sawoski is on the ASCAP Cue Sheet, and receiving payment for the music in this scene.)
