Ray Conniff e a sua história.
Ray Conniff nasceu em Attelboro,
Massachussetts, E.U.A. no dia 06 de novembro de 1916.
Herdou dos pais a paixão pela música. Seu pai era mestre
ferramenteiro, em uma pequena indústria de ferragens, além
trombonista e sua mãe tocava piano.
A primeira experiência como músico de orquestra foi no
ginásio Attleboro. Começou como trombonista e com o tempo
passou a fazer arranjos até tornar-se orquestrador da banda local.
Seu primeiro emprego como músico profissional foi com o "Musical
Skippers", de Dan Murphy, em Boston. Começou tocando trombone,
orquestrando e dirigindo o caminhão do grupo. Depois, mudou-se
para Nova York. Em Nova York trabalhou como trombonista-arranjador de
Bunny Berrigan. Em 1939 começou a trabalhar com Bob Crosby e
os "Bobcats". Um ano depois foi contratado por Artie Shaw
e depois, por Glen Gray. Após essas duas experiências,
Conniff começou a fazer arranjos para o serviço de rádio
das Forças Armadas dos EUA, onde ficou até 1946. Saiu
do Exército e foi orquestrar para Harry James, com quem trabalhou
até o final da década de 40.
Os últimos anos da década de 40 foram os mais apagados
da história de Conniff. Ele parou de fazer arranjos e ganhava
a vida - na época era casado e já tinha três filhos-
como orquestrador free-lance e fazendo trabalhos fora da área
musical. A sua grande oportunidade surgiu no começo da década
de 50 quando conheceu Mitch Miller, da Colúmbia Records
Na gravadora, começou a fazer arranjos e orquestração
para outros músicos e para os discos da Colúmbia. Os maiores
sucessos foram "Walkin'In The Rain", "Moonlight Gambler",
entre outros. O sucesso obtido por Conniff em outros discos incentivou
a Colúmbia a lançar um álbum de autoria do maestro.
Foi então que surgiu "'S Wonderful", que ficou na lista
dos discos de maior sucesso por nove meses. Na primavera de 1960, Conniff
fez uma turnê de 11 dias e lotou as principais casas noturnas
de Los Angeles e São Francisco. Nesses concertos, o maestro começou
a desenvolver o seu estilo musical, que o distinguiu como um talentoso
arranjador-regente. Ray começou a fazer uso de um coro vocal
como naipe da orquestra e em vez de tocar instrumentos, os vocalistas
soltavam síladas tais como: ba-ba e du-du, que juntas ao som
de um ritmo musical contribuíram para tornar o estilo de Conniff
mundialmente conhecido.
Suas interpretações
de clássicos como "Bésame Mucho", "New
York, New York" e "S' Wonderful" foram ouvidas em todo
o mundo. Durante uma carreira que se estendeu por seis décadas,
Conniff conquistou com seus sucessos 10 discos de ouro e dois de platina.
Como arranjador, tornou-se um dos grandes mestres do "easy listening"
e um campeão absoluto dos salões de bailes.
As Críticas.
Foi também bastante criticado pelos arranjos suaves e adocicados
que dispensava a clássicos como Besame Mucho, New York, New York,
Pretty Woman, que o ajudaram a vender 85 milhões de discos. Seus
críticos enxergavam em seus arranjos, pródigos em metais,
uma mesma interpretação pobre e pasteurizada para os mais
diversos gêneros, como jazz, bossa, rock, bolero, swing etc. Daí
porque passou a ser ironizado, ao lado de Glenn Miller, Burt Bacharach,
Chris de Burgh e outros, como rei dos elevadores, consultórios
médicos e salas de espera em geral. Conniff dizia não
ligar. "Não tenho controle sobre o que escrevem."
O fato é que seus
arranjos para músicas como Smoke Gets in Your Eyes e Strangers
in The Night embalaram bailinhos de várias gerações,
em muitas partes do mundo.
No Brasil
No Brasil, país pelo qual tinha um carinho especial, sua primeira
visita ao País foi na década de 60, quando, ao lado de
Henry Mancini, tocou Aquarela do Brasil, Besame Mucho e Somewhere my
Love. Voltaria mais de dez vezes. "Não sei a razão,
mas gosto muito de saber que no Brasil três gerações
dançam com minhas músicas", disse em 1999. No mesmo
ano, lançou um disco dedicado à música sertaneja
brasileira. Em Ray Conniff's Country (1999), gravado na Califórnia,
o maestro rearranjou Pense em Mim, É o Amor, Festa de Rodeio,
Luar do Sertão, Bem te Vi, No Rancho Fundo, Entre Tapas e Beijos,
entre outras. O disco entrou para sua longa série de álbuns
"regionais", que já incluía homenagens à
Rússia, Venezuela, Grã-Bretanha, além do Brasil
em Amor, Amor (1982), Fantástico (1983), Ray Conniff Live in
Rio (1996).
Último show de Ray Conniff foi no Brasil.
Sua última passagem foi em setembro de 2001, para duas apresentações
no Credicard Hall, tendo no repertório músicas de Frank
Sinatra, Bee Gees, The Carpenters e Beatles. Estão entre suas
últimas aparições públicas.
Ray Conniff, alegre, extrovertido, simpático. Era assim a sua
figura. Fez alegria, romance e encantamento de muitas gerações.
Muitos romances foram embalados por "La Mer", "Love Is
A Many-Splendored Thing", "Love Letters", "Green
Eyes" (Aqueles Olhos Verdes), e muitas outras canções...
A morte de Ray Conniff
O músico e maestro Ray Conniff, 85 anos, morreu dia 12 de outubro
de 2002, nos Estados Unidos em consequência de um derrame. Há
seis meses, o maestro estava com o lado direito do corpo paralisado
devido a outro derrame. Conniff sentiu-se mal quando saía de
um restaurante em Los Angeles e foi levado ao hospital, onde morreu.
