Ko Tommy Emmanuel, tetahi o nga kaiwaiata rongonui o Ahitereiria. Ko tenei kaiwaiata me te kaiwaiata rongonui kua rongonui i te ao katoa. I te 43 o ona tau, kua kiia kētia ia he pūrākau o te ao puoro. I roto i ana mahi, kua mahi tahi a Emmanuel me nga kaitoi rongonui maha. He maha nga waiata i titohia e ia, katahi ano ka eke ki te ao.
Ka kitea tana pukenga ngaio i roto i nga momo momo puoro me nga huarahi. I whakatangihia e te kaitoi te jazz, te toka me te roera, te karu puru, te whenua me te puāwaitanga. I roto i tana haurongo ipurangi, i korero a Emmanuel: "Ko taku angitu ko te whakamahi i nga momo momo momo puoro ka taea e au te whakakotahi."
Te tamarikitanga me te taiohi
I whanau a William Thomas Emmanuel i te 31 o Mei, 1955 i Muswellbrook, New South Wales, Ahitereiria. He tino pai nga matua o te tama ki te waiata, he pai ta raua waiata me te whakauru i a raua tamariki tokowha ki tenei mahi, tae atu ki a Tommy iti. I timata ia ki te whakatangi kita i te wha o ona tau. He mea whakatenatena na nga kaiwaiata rongonui o Amerika a Chet Atkins me Hank B. Marvin. Ko te rangi kitā tuatahi i akohia e ia ko "Guitar Boogie" na Arthur Smith. I te tau 1960, na te tuakana o Tommy i whakatu tana roopu puoro ko The Emmanuel Quartet. He roopu whanau.
I takaro a Tommy ki te kita manawataki, a Phil tuakana ki te kita mata, a Chris teina ki te pahu, me te tuahine a Virginia ki te ukulele. He maha nga tau i muri mai, ka mahi tonu a Tommy Emmanuel me tona tuakana a Phil. Ko te kaitoi kaore i whiwhi i te maatauranga puoro puoro. Engari karekau tenei e whakararu ana i tana pukenga tuuturu ki te tuhi waiata whakamiharo, waiata me te kohikohi taiwhanga i ana konohete.
Tommy Emmanuel - te huarahi ki te angitu
Mai i te tamarikitanga, ka mohio te tamaiti ki te whakatutuki i te rongonui, me whakapau kaha koe. Na ka mahi ia me te kore e whakawhirinaki ki tetahi ko ia anake. I a Tommy Emmanuel i a ia e tamariki ana, i parakatihi a Tommy Emmanuel ki te purei kitara mo te 8 haora ia ra. I te 10 o ona tau, he maha tonu nga mahi a ia i roto i nga whare taraihi me nga wharekai. I te timatanga o tana mahi, i kitea he tino wawata ia.
Na te tupono, ko te mahi a te whanau Emmanuel i kitea e te kaihanga rongonui o Ahitereiria me te kaiwhakaari a Buddy Williams. I tino hiahia te whetu ki a Tommy rangatahi me tana keemu virtuoso. Ka mau a Wiremu ki te whakatairanga i tetahi roopu kaiwaiata rangatahi. Ka huri te kapa i tona ingoa - ka timata te ingoa ko "The Trailblazers". I te tau 1966, ka mate te papa o nga tamariki. He tino mate tenei ki te whanau. Tommy, ua ite au i te fifi no te hoê metua vahine ia faaruru i te utuafare ma te ore e turu i te moni. Ka whakatau ia ki te awhina i tona whaea ahakoa te aha.
Ka tukuna e te tangata nga panui puta noa i te taone nui e ako ana ki te purei kita. A i muri i etahi wiki, kaore he mutunga o Tommy ki te hunga e hiahia ana ki te tango akoranga. Ahakoa nga tangata pakeke i rarangi. Ko te mea ko Tommy i nga wa katoa ka kitea he huarahi ki tetahi tangata me te whakamarama i nga mea katoa me te mohio. Ko te tikanga anake mo te kaiako rangatahi me tino aroha koe ki te puoro me to mahunga ki roto.
