스크랩 Nat King Cole.....넷킹콜..재즈 전설의 인물로 남음

[극단영해]

Autumn Leaves - Nat King Cole

Nat King Cole was a black man, who became a very famous jazz pianist and singer. His music is still enjoyed today especially because his daughter Natalie has re-released his wonderful music.

  넷킹콜은 흑인으로서 유명한 재즈 피아니스트이며 가수였다 특히 요즘은 그의 딸  나탈리와 함께 그의 훌륭한 음악을 새롭게 편집하여 낸것으로 더욱 사랑받고있다   Nat's Family
Nat's father was the Reverend Edward James Coles Snr. His mother's name was Perlina Adams Coles. Together they had thirteen children, but only five of them lived to adulthood. When Nat was about four years old, his family moved from Montgomery in the south of the United States, to Chicago in the north, where Nat's father became the minister of his own church.   넷의 아버지는 에드워드 제임스 콜 목사였고 엄마는 펠리나 였는데 그들은 13명의 자녀가 있었는데 5명만 어른이될때까지 살았다 넷이 4살때 그의가족은 몽고메리 에서 시카고로 옮겼고 아버지는 자기교회목사..

Nat's birthday was on the 17th of March (which is St Patrick's Day), but it is hard to say which year he was born in. Nat used three different dates himself on official documents. These are 1915, 1916 and 1919. Other dates used are 1912 and 1917.

넷의 생일은 3월 17일 이었는데 (성 페트릭스 데이) 실은 그가 태어난해는 확실이 말할수없는것이 넷이

3개의 틀린 년도를 서류에 썻기때문에...1915년, `9`6년 1919년 그리고 다른곳에는 1912년 과 1917년 이라고 썻었음

His Childhood...넷의 어린시절
Nat learned to play the piano when he was very young. It may be hard to believe but his mother was the only piano teacher that he ever had. 넷은 그의 어머니로부터 어렸을때부터 피아노렛슨을 받았다

His first public performance was at the age of four and when he was in Kindergarten he played for the other children.

Nat regularly played in his father's church from the age of 11 and was an accomplished pianist by the age of 12. He formed his first jazz band when he was in high school .

그가 4살때 유치원에서 처음으로 연주를 했고 11살 때부터 그의 아버지의 교회에서 반주를 하기 시작했고

12살때 그가 하이스쿨 에 다닐때 처음으로 재즈밴드를 구성하였다

One day Nat asked if their family was poor. His mother answered "Yes". Then he asked "Are we poor, poor, poor". This time she answered "Yes we are". Then Nat said a very strange thing - "One day my name will be up in lights and we wont be poor any more". It's surprising but what Nat said came true.

어느날  넷이 우리가족은 가난하냐고 물었었느데..그의 엄마가 그렇다고 답하자..그가 우리는 가난해요? 가난해요? 가난해요?

라고 불었을때...그의 엄마는...그리..우리는 가난해...라고 답했고..그때 넷이 말하기를..어느날 내이름이 빛날것이고

우리는 더이상 가난하지 않을것이라고 말하여 놀랐으나..훗날 그말이 사실이 되었다

His Early Career 그의 초창기 직업
 Nat's early career was mainly piano playing. Nat played a lot in a trio with one of his brothers. The trio did not have a drummer because Nat's piano playing kept rhythm so well.

넷의 초창기 직업은 주로 피아노 연주였는데..그의 형제들과 삼중주를 많이 했다.  그 삼중주에는 드럼이 없었는데

그것은 넷이 피아노를 리듬있게 아주 잘쳤기때문이었다.  

One night Nat was playing in a pub and one of his listeners asked him to sing. Nat didn't want to until his boss said he'd better, so he did.
 

어느날 그가 술집에서 피아노 연주를 하고있을대..한 방청객이 노래를 좀 하라고 요청했는데..

그는 노래를 하고싶지않았지만  그의 보스가 하는것이 좋겠다고 하여 노래를 했다

Later Career...
Nat then became a well known singer. Nat sold over 50 million records and believe me that's a lot! He was one of the first people to make records with the company called "Capitol Records". He sold so many records, that the company headquarters was often referred to as "The House that Nat Built"

넷은 차츰 유명한 가수가되었고 그의 레코드는 50억장이 팔렸으며 케피탈 레코드사에서는 그가 처음으로  레코드를

낸가수였다..

He did a lot of work to make things better for black people by refusing to play at places that wouldn't let black people in, or making them change their rules before he would play there. In his early days of touring Nat and his band were often not allowed to stay at the places they played at.

그는 흑인들을 위햐여 많이 나섰는데..흑인들의 출입이 급지된곳에서는 연주르를 거부했거나...흑인들도 출입을

허가하도록 규율을 바꾸도록 했었다 (그당시 흑인들은 백인들의 가는곳에 갈수없었슴.. 식당..화장실..버스를타고

흑인들은 뒤에만 앉아야했슴)

When he started to earn more money, he bought a house in a very expensive area of Los Angeles. Some of the people who already lived there protested and said they didn't want any undesirables moving in. and would be the first to

넷이 돈을 많이 벌었을대 LA 에서 비싼동네에 집을 샀는데..그동네 살고있던사람들이 흑인이 들어오는것을

싫어하여 반대를 했슴

One time when he was playing at a concert in his home state of Alabama, some men tried to kidnap him from off the stage because they were so angry about a black man being allowed to put on a concert.

He became so famous however that he was invited to places by President Kennedy.

어느날 그가 그의 고향인 알라바마 에서 콘서트를 하고있는데..몇남자가 와서 콘서트 스테이지 에서 그를 납치하려고했다

왜냐면 흑인이 콘서트 홀에서 연주하는것이 허가된것에 화가나서...그러나 그는 유명해져서 케내디 대통령 에게도

초청이 되었었다

Movies and TV  영화와 테레비젼
Nat was the first black man to have his own radio show and later his own T.V show.

넷은 흑인중에서는 처음으로 라디오 와 테레비젼에 출연했는데 나중에는 그가 자기의 T.V. 쇼프로를 했다

In October 1956, Nat started his own TV show. It was probably the first serious attempt by a TV station to have a Negro as a show's host. It was very popular but businesses were afraid that white southern audiences would stop buying their products if they advertised during the show.

1956년 10월 넷이 그의 테레비젼 쇼 를 시작했는데..그것은 검둥이가 쇼에 주인으로 나오기는 처음이었기에

그쇼가 인기는 좋았으나 백인들이 그 상품을 사지않을까봐 업주들은 광고를 내기꺼려했다..

다른기록에는 흑인업주들도 넷의 프로에 손님들이 많기는했지만..그래도 거기에 광고를 내는것은

돈낭비라고 생각하여 광고를 내지않았었다..그때 한참 흑인들이   백인들의 눈에 가시였는데

게다가 흑인들이 돈많이벌고 자기네 사는 부자동네에 집사고 그러는것이 아주 못바땅하여 미워했었슴

Nat also appeared in quite a few movies. The best known of these is St Louis Blues in which he played the role of the jazz composer W.C. Handy. He also appeared in a film about himself called The Nat King Cole Story.

He appeared in lots of other movies just to sing a song.

넷은 영화에도 출연했었는데..잘알려진 세인트 루이스 블루스..에서 제즈 쟉곡가 W.C. 핸디 의 역을 맡았다

핸디 역시 넷킹콜 이야기 라른 영화에 몸소출연했었다

Career Cut Short
Nat died in 1965. He died of lung cancer because he used three packets of cigarettes every day for many years.

1965년에 넷은  폐암으로 사망했는데...매일 세갑씩의 담배를 수년동안 피웠었다

After that his music still was very popular and lots more records were sold.

Recently, his daughter Natalie started singing his music again and it became even more popular.

그의 음악은 아직도 인기가있고 요즘은 그의 딸 나탈리가 그의 음악을 함께 불러서 더 인기가 좋아졌다
