A Day In The Life… A Day In The Life ...
Here's a small slice of life from a night on the town with Emily through the eyes of fellow friend and former student, Narito ang isang maliit na paghiwa-hiwain ng buhay mula sa isang gabi sa bayan sa pamamagitan ng Emily sa pamamagitan ng mga mata ng kapwa kaibigan at dating mag-aaral, Michael Ducey Michael Ducey titled Emily, I'll Carry You! Written November 24, 2004. Emily na may pamagat na, kukunin ko Carry mo! Written 24 Nobyembre 2004.
O ne day I arrived at Emily's apartment to take a lesson and there she was in a leg cast and on crutches, having not exactly had the greatest time skiing. Oh ne araw ako dumating sa Emily's apartment na kumuha ng isang aral at doon siya ay sa isang cast leg at sa panaklay, pagkakaroon ng hindi eksakto ay ang pinakamalaking pang-iski oras. I told her Joe Pass was coming to town and he was performing on a double-bill with Jim Hall. Sinabi ko sa kanya Joe Pass ay dumarating sa bayan at siya ay gumaganap sa isang double-bill na may Jim Hall. She said that she knew about it and she'd really love to go, especially since she was a good friend of Jim Halls, but there's one problem she said “at the moment I can't walk”. Siya ay sinabi na siya alam tungkol sa mga ito at talagang siya gusto mahal na pumunta, lalo na mula noong siya ay isang mabuting kaibigan ng Jim Halls, ngunit mayroong isang problema ang kanyang sinabi "sa sandaling hindi ko maglakad". I said “Emily, you're not heavy, so I'll just get as close to the Blue Note as I can and I'll carry you.” So, sure enough a few nights later I picked Emily up and drove down into Greenwich Village, found a spot on the north side of Washington Square Park and Emily got on my back and I carried her to the Blue Note. Sabi ko "Emily, di ka na mabigat na, kaya kailangan ko lamang makakuha ng bilang na malapit sa Blue Tandaan bilang ko at kukunin ko na carry mo." Kaya, siguraduhin na sapat ang isang ilang gabi mamaya ko pinili Emily up at kawan down sa Greenwich Village, natagpuan ang isang lugar sa hilagaan sa Washington Square Park at Emily got sa aking likod at ako dinala sa kanya na ang Blue Tandaan.
I wish I had a tape recorder with me that night, because up in the dressing room after the first set Emily asked Jim if she could borrow his beautiful cherry colored guitar. gusto ko ako ay nagkaroon ng isang tape recorder sa akin na ang gabi, dahil hanggang sa dressing room matapos ang unang set Emily nagtanong Jim kung siya ay maaaring hiramin ang maganda seresa kulay guitar. Joe told her to play a tune with him. Joe sinabi sa kanya na maglaro ng isang tune sa kaniya. They had one beautiful interchange after another and it was something the rest audience downstairs never got to see. Sila ay nagkaroon ng isa maganda ang magpalitan ng mga pagkatapos ng isa pang at ito ay isang bagay ang iba sa silong ng madla hindi kailanman got upang makita.
After playing with Joe, rather than stay for the 2nd set Emily asked me how my back was and wanted to know if I'd mind checking out Leni Stern, because she was playing that night at the 55 Bar on Christopher Street. Pagkatapos ng paglalaro sa Joe, sa halip na manatili para sa set 2 Emily nagtanong sa akin kung paano ang aking likod ay at nais na malaman kung gusto ko isip checking out Leni Stern, dahil siya ay naglalaro na gabi sa 55 Bar sa Christopher Street. So, playing horse again, we made our way over a few more blocks. Kaya, sa paglalaro ng kabayo muli, ginawa namin ang aming mga paraan sa paglipas ng ilang karagdagang mga bloke.
What thrilled Emily that night was seeing not only two legendary guitarists at the Blue Note, but seeing another wonderful guitarist, who was also a great writer. Ano nanginginig Emily na gabi ay nakakakita hindi lamang ng dalawang legendary guitarist sa Blue Tandaan, ngunit nakakakita ng isa pang kahanga guitarist, na noon ay din ng isang mahusay na manunulat. Emily said “hey, I know I've got the chops, but I would love to write like Leni”. Emily sinabi "hey, alam ko ako got ang chops, ngunit Gusto ko ibig na isulat tulad Leni".
L eni was playing that night with a blazing guitarist named Wayne Krantz and as always her solos were silky smooth. L eni ay naglalaro na gabi na may isang nagliliyab Guitarist pinangalanan Wayne Krantz at gaya ng lagi ang kanyang solos ay malasutla makinis. I'll tell more about Leni another time, but what I saw that night made me realize that every talented individual has something to glean from another. kailangan ko bang sabihin ang nalalaman tungkol sa Leni ibang oras, ngunit kung ano ang nakita ko gabi na ginawa sa akin mapagtanto na ang bawat indibidwal na may ulo ay isang bagay na mamulot mula sa isa pang.
B eautiful music is always an interchange. B eautiful musika ay palaging isang pagpapalitan.
This remembrance of meeting and playing with Emily is from Larry Coryell's 2007 autobiography titled : Improvising: My Life In Music Ito alaala sa pulong at sa paglalaro ng mga Emily ay mula sa 2007's autobiography Larry Coryell na may pamagat na: bakis: My Life In Music
Emily and I started playing together as a duo. Emily at ako na nagsimula ng paglalaro magkasama bilang isang duo. We toured the United States and Europe off and on for about a year and were briefly involved romantically, until I realized that we had very little in common. Kami toured ng Estados Unidos at Europa off at sa para sa mga tungkol sa isang taon at sa madaling sabi ay kasangkot romantikong, hanggang ako na natanto na kami ay nagkaroon ng masyadong maliit na sa pangkaraniwan. We made a duet record for Concord Records, Together , which still stands up today, I think, especially as a testament to Emily's genius. Gumawa kami ng isang duet record para sa Concord Records, Magkasama, na nakatayo pa rin hanggang ngayon, sa tingin ko, lalo na bilang isang testamento sa Emily's henyo. When the record was released there was lot of reaction from the jazz guitar community. Kapag ang record ay pinakawalan ay may pulutong ng reaksyon mula sa komunidad ng jazz guitar. One publication, The Texas Monthly , had a long article analyzing the different soloing approaches we had. One publikasyon, Ang Texas Buwanang, ay nagkaroon ng isang mahabang artikulo aaral ang mga iba't ibang soloing pamamaraang namin ay. They surmised that Neal Tesser, who wrote the liner notes, had confused my playing with Emily's and Emily's playing with mine! Sila surmised na Neal Tesser, na wrote ang mga tala liner, ay nalilito ang aking paglalaro sa Emily's at Emily's naglalaro sa minahan! I thought that was kinda funny because ever since I started doing two-guitar things, even musicians who knew both of us sometimes couldn't tell us apart. Akala ko na kinda funny dahil mula pa nang ako na nagsimula paggawa ng dalawang-guitar bagay, kahit na musikero na alam pareho ng sa amin kung minsan ay hindi sabihin sa amin hiwalay. The first example of this I recall came from Jack Bruce, who also said he couldn't tell me from John McLaughlin when he first heard “Spaces”. Ang unang halimbawa ng mga ito pagpapabalik ako ay dumating mula sa Jack Bruce, na sinabi rin hindi niya sabihin sa akin mula sa John McLaughlin kapag siya unang narinig "puwang". But where McLaughlin came off sounding like a high-flying rocket, Emily was like a poet when she played. Ngunit kung saan McLaughlin dumating off tunog tulad ng isang mataas na paglipad rocket, Emily ay tulad ng isang makata kapag siya nilalaro. I recall one bizarre incident on tour in Germany when we were in a doctor's office. recall ko isa kakaiba insidente sa tour sa Germany kapag kami ay sa tanggapan ng doktor. The doctor had a guitar there, an entry-level solid-body, with a small amp. ang doktor ay nagkaroon ng isang guitar doon, ang isang entry-level na solid-katawan, na may isang maliit na amp. Emily picked it up and plugged in and started playing just with her fingers – no pick. Emily pumili ito up at plugged sa at nagsimula ang paglalaro lamang sa kanyang mga daliri - walang pick. We were all mesmerized by what she was doing: chords, timing, feel, counterpoint, and spontaneity. Kami ay ang lahat mesmerized sa pamamagitan ng kung ano siya ay paggawa ng: chords, tiyempo, pakiramdam, kontrapunkta, at spontaneity.
Emily died an untimely and all-too-early death in 1990 at the age of 32. Emily namatay ang isang wala sa oras at lahat-ng-masyadong-maagang kamatayan sa 1990 sa edad na 32. Monty Alexander, her ex-husband, said it best; “She's out of town. Monty Alexander, ang kanyang ex-asawa, sinabi ito pinakamahusay; "Siya ay sa labas ng bayan. She'll be back” – I believe that – the music was just too good. Makikita Siya ay bumalik "- naniniwala ako na - ang musika ay makatarungan lubha mabuti.
The following letters to the editor appeared in the August issue of Guitar Magazine written by Edward Barr and Joel Turoff shortly after Emily's passing. Ang mga sumusunod na mga titik na ang editor na lumitaw sa Agosto isyu ng Guitar Magazine na isinulat ni Edward Barr at Joel Turoff ilang sandali lamang matapos Emily's pagdaan. Their remembrances were quite touching and bitter sweet. Ang kanilang mga alaalang ay lubos na hawakan at mapait na matamis. If there were any questions about Emily's dedication to her students or if she was a serious teacher, let them be silenced. Kung may anumang mga katanungan tungkol sa Emily's dedikasyon sa kanyang mga mag-aaral o kung siya ay isang malubhang guro, maging pinatahimik.
I mean please, who in the world would entertain the thought of a student at 7 AM ! ibig sabihin ko po, sino sa mundo ay libangin ang isipan ng isang estudyante sa 7:00!
