Actors who are amazing musicians too

We can't forget Harpo.

And Chico who played the piano like no one I’ve seen.

That whole family was amazingly talented.

We can't forget Harpo.

Funny thing, Harpo was self taught on the harp. He figured out his own tuning which was somewhat different from how those taught tune the instrument. Plus don't forget his brother Chico who played the piano, in fact they both did. You can find video clips of the two of them sharing one piano in a couple movies.

Well if comedy is acting then Victor Borge should be right up there on the top.

I agree, met him at a Paul Revere and the Raiders concert in the 60's in Denver, CO. He was hilarious!

That statement alone is kind of hilarious.

Colonel Klink, AKA Werner Klemperer. Really could play the violin.

He did symphony conducting too during his years.

His dad was a world renowned conductor.

I recall seeing that said. You know when he accepted the role of Colonel Klink he told the studio he would only do it if they made the character look like an arrogant buffoon.
