Charlotte Harris (died 2019) is the host for this 2001 wrap around as the theme is how Classical compositions were "borrowed" to create popular songs. Some of the composers represented inlcude Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Grieg, and Leoncavallo. Thus we get "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows," "Hot Diggity, Dog Diggity," "Tonight We Love," and many others.
This is the period of a number of newcomers: Gayle, Sandy, Mary Lou, Guy and Ralna, who are now the oldsters in real life, hitting their 70s and 80s.
Gayle show her piano artistry with a Bacarach piece played in the style of Bach and Beethoven. The trio of her, Mary Lou, and Sandy wear long, loose dresses, as Sandy is pregnant and that was always a no-no for Welk broadcasts.
Charlotte talks in detail about her life and professional experience, and does a duet with her second husband.
