UCharlie Brown Krisimesi , isandi esiya kwi-animated Amandongomane okhethekileyo, Ujika iminyaka engama-50 kule nyanga. Kumashumi eminyaka adlulileyo, iingoma-kubandakanya uLinus noLucy, ixesha leKrisimesi lilapha kunye noguqulelo oluthe ngqo lwe-O Tannenbaum- Sele ungene kwinkcubeko.
Kodwa ke kuMnu Granelli kunye nabalingane bakhe, umdlali wepiyano uVince Guaraldi kunye no-bassist uFred Marshall, umhla wawugqityiwe. Kuyavakala ukuba kuyahlekisa ukuthi, kodwa yayifana nosuku oluqhelekileyo kubomi betriyo yejazz, uMnu.Granelli uxelele uMqwalaseli kwincoko yomnxeba esuka eVancouver, eBritish Columbia. IKrisimesi kaCharlie Brown yabhalwa kwiminyaka engama-50 eyadlulayo kule nyanga.
Singene nje sayenza, ukhumbule. Wenze umhla wokurekhoda ngeyure ezintathu ngezo ntsuku, ndoda.
Umnumzana Granelli kunye namalungu eqela lakhe bebengazi ukuba le nkqubo izakuthatha ixesha elingakanani, yiyo loo nto, yonke ingoma icima. Bebengazi nokuba ingayenza ukuba ibe ngumabonwakude. I-CBS, eyayisasaza okhethekileyo, wayethandabuza ukuba isandi somculo wejazz siza kubhenela kubaphulaphuli ababanzi, kwaye oopopayi, inkampani icinga, yenye indlela. Kodwa i-Coca-Cola, eyayigunyazise okhethekileyo, yabona ukuba icwangcisiwe, kwaye yaqala ngoDisemba 9.
Kwakungalibaleki kuba yayiyinto entle kakhulu ukuba ungene kwisitudiyo sokurekhoda kwaye uhlawulwe, kwaye udlale, ucaphule, ijezi, utshilo uMnu. Granelli. Kum ibifana, wow, ndingaphila, emva kokwenza iidola ezisibhozo ngobusuku kwigig.
Umnumzana Granelli ukhumbula ukuba wenza i-68 yeedola kwiseshoni-inqanaba lomanyano ngelo xesha, utshilo. Ngoku i-74 kunye nemvumi yokugqibela esindayo kwiseshoni, uMnu.Granelli, ohlala eHalifax, ukhenketho neqela lakhe elisebenzayo, edlala iingoma ezikwi-albhamu.
Ukusukela ngala mhla wamanqindi embindini we-’60s, uMnu Granelli usebenze njengegubu leseshoni kwiirekhodi ezininzi, kuquka nezo ze-The Kingston Trio kunye nathi Sihlanu. Udlale kumdlali wepiyano uDenny Zeitlin's trio kunye no-bassist uCharlie Haden, owayesebenza nomdlali we-jazz okhululekileyo u-Ornette Coleman ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yoo-1950, kunye noMnumzana Granelli ngokwakhe kamva wadlala noColeman, owasweleka ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka. Usebenze noMose Allison noPat Metheny, kwaye ukhuphe inani elithile iirekhodi zakhe njengebandleader.
Umnumzana Granelli uthi uhambile kwisithathu sikaVince Guaraldi malunga nonyaka emva koko IKrisimesi kaCharlie Brown yenziwe. Ndishiye ndahamba kude kakhulu ngasekhohlo, utshilo.
Akamameli IKrisimesi kaCharlie Brown Rhoqo, nangona ebuyela kuyo ngamanye amaxesha xa kufuneka ephumile kwaye adlale iingoma, njengoko esenza ngoku. Kodwa ke, ufumana ii-imeyile ezivela kubabethi begubu ababuza malunga nebrashi yakhe kwi-albhamu, kwaye, njengoninzi lwethu, udibana neengoma ngalo lonke ixesha esidlangalaleni.
Bendikwi-bar yejusi ngale ntsasa, ndizama ukufumana isiselo sempilo, utshilo, kwaye 'uLinus noLucy' babekhona kanye kwinkqubo yesandi.
Ngaphandle kokudlala enye yee-albhamu ezithengisa kakhulu zeholide ngalo lonke ixesha, nangona kunjalo, uMnu.Granelli uthi akangomlandeli omkhulu weerekhodi zeKrisimesi.
NdingumBhuda, utshilo.
