Pianorama, the two-volume collectors' edition of the late Anthony Burger's classic piano performances, has been honored as a Bronze Winner in the Film/Video category at the 29th Annual Telly Awards. Pianorama was issued by Anthony Burger Productions in memoriam to Anthony, who died in 2006 at the age of 44. Burger was a popular performer on the Gaither Homecoming videos and tours for a decade. This is not the first Telly Award for Anthony Burger Productions, which won in 2005 for Masterpiece and More, a Gaither Music Group release.

Founded in 1979, the Telly Awards is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, the finest film and video productions, and groundbreaking web commercials, videos and films. Winners represent the best work of the most respected advertising agencies, production companies, television stations, cable operators, and corporate video departments in the world. The winners were chosen from more than 13,500 entries from across America and around the world.

The Best of Anthony Burger, a DVD celebration of the maestro's life and career hosted by Bill Gaither, was certified gold recently by the RIAA.

"We are truly astounded and gratified that Anthony's music continues to touch hearts three years after his untimely death," his widow, Luann Burger, mused. "Judging from the calls and emails we receive from across the country, his music legacy stretches beyond the gospel genre and blesses, encourages and witnesses to lives. It would mean so much to Anthony to know how many lives his extraordinary playing touched."
