A real American Master...

Tony Bennett is the theme on WPT Wednesday night. Beginning at 7, the legendary performer is featured in Tony Bennett Duets: The Making of an American Classic. Then at 8, WPT will present the much anticipated American Masters "Tony Bennett: The Music Never Ends." The film was produced by Clint Eastwood and interweaves Bennett's musical life story within a number of fantastic musical performances.

This article explains how the 77-year-old actor and 81-year-old singer met and describes how the film was created.

As one of the last of the great crooners, Bennett is still working a regular touring schedule. And, his music continues to get rave reviews. To hear some of the songs from the Duets album that is featured in Wednesday's first program, head on over to Bennett's official Web site.

And, to see how multi-faceted Bennett's talents are, you can find galleries of his paintings online at this site.
