W.C. Handy

from Acercándonos a escuchar UACh-Sede Puerto Montt

Originario de Florence, Alabama, William Cristopher Handy, popularmente conocido como W. C. Handy, nació el 16 de noviembre de 1873 y se le adjudica haber llevado el blues a grandes públicos. Pese a que el padre de Handy era fiel creyente de que los instrumentos musicales eran herramientas del diablo, el artista compró en su juventud una guitarra y después tomó lecciones de órgano. Conocimientos que sentarían las bases para su carrera musical. Aprendiz de carpintería, zapatería y yeso, Handy era profundamente religioso, de donde tomó influencia (además de los sonidos de la naturaleza y los pájaros) para sus composiciones. Dichas composiciones se caracterizan por utilizar elementos de la música folclórica y por no seguir, usualmente, el patrón clásico de doce compases. Con influencia del ragtime –género que surgió en medio de los campos de algodón– el primer éxito musical de Handy fue Memphis Blues, una composición grabada el 15 de julio de 1914. Aunque Handy no fue el fundador del blues, sino un magnífico intérprete de este género musical, se autodenominaba el Padre del Blues, debido a que fue el primero en publicar música en este formato. A continuación escucharemos ST. LOUIS BLUES by W.C. Handy interpretado por Charenee Wade en la voz acompañada por el trompetista Jon-Erik Kellso, el saxofonista y clarinetista Mark Lopeman, el trombonista Harvey Tibbs, el guitarrista Matt Munisteri, el bajista Tal Ronen y el baterista Mark McLean, bajo la dirección del pianista Mark Shane.
