Piano-Notenblätter von Elvis Presley auf Zen Virtual Piano entdecken. Elvis Presley was a singer. On January 8, 1935, Vernon and Gladys Presley had a son, Elvis Aaron Presley, in Tupelo, Mississippi, in a house of two rooms. His twin brother, Jessie Garon, was stillborn, so Elvis grew up as an only child. The Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show in Tupelo held a youth talent contest, and WELO Radio broadcast it. Elvis, aged ten, stood on a chair at the microphone and sang "Old Shep". The two-room house in Tupelo and the WELO Radio broadcast of his ten-year-old performance may suggest that a small-town childhood and a radio audience were not far apart. At L. C. Humes High School, Presley received a C in eighth-grade music. His music teacher told him he had no aptitude for singing. In reply, Presley brought in his guitar and sang "Keep Them Cold Icy Fingers Off Me". Presley could not read music, played by ear, and frequented record stores that provided jukeboxes and listening booths. The teacher's verdict on his singing and the record stores with listening booths may hint at two very different places where Presley met music. Before he became famous, Presley drove a delivery truck for the Memphis, Tennessee-based Crown Electric Company. His one appearance on the Grand Ole Opry did not go over particularly well. A recording session on the evening of July 5 proved entirely unfruitful until late in the night, and as the session was close to ending, Presley launched into Arthur Crudup's 1946 blues number "That's All Right". Drummer D. J. Fontana came aboard in 1955, rounding out what became Presley's classic quartet. That year Colonel Tom Parker, who managed him for the rest of his career, arranged a deal by which RCA Victor acquired his contract. The delivery-truck job at Crown Electric and the Opry's cool reception may suggest a career that passed through several different stages. "Heartbreak Hotel", his first single for RCA Victor, came out in January 1956 and reached number one in the US. An acclaimed NBC television comeback special, Elvis, brought him back to the stage in 1968. It led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and several highly profitable tours. Aloha from Hawaii, in 1973, was a Presley concert, and it was the first by a solo artist to be broadcast worldwide. The number-one hit "Heartbreak Hotel" and the 1973 worldwide broadcast may hint at a career with more than one high point. Seven Presley recordings are in the GRAMMY Hall Of Fame, among them "Don't Be Cruel," "Heartbreak Hotel," "Hound Dog," and "Jailhouse Rock." In 1971 the Recording Academy gave him its Lifetime Achievement Award. The Opry appearance that did not go over well and the Recording Academy's Lifetime Achievement Award may point to a contrast between a cool reception at one appearance and formal recognition of his career. Presley died in August 1977 at his Graceland estate at the age of 42.
