在 Zen Virtual Piano 探索 Johnny Marks 的钢琴琴谱。 Johnny Marks was a songwriter who wrote “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.” Marks was born in Mt. Vernon, New York, on November 10, 1909, and after graduating from Colgate University and Columbia University he studied in Paris. His father, Louis B. Marks, who lived from 1869 to 1939, was a leading illumination (lighting) engineer. A father in lighting engineering, beside Marks’s own studies in Paris, may point to two different careers within one family. Marks says he took piano lessons from about the age of eight, and after two years his teacher told his parents he was hopeless, so the lessons stopped. He played in night-clubs at night and called publishers by day to play his songs, until one song was published and then two. His college music studies fell in the 1920s. In 1939 the Ink Spots had a major hit with one of his songs, and a song or two of his had gone to Guy Lombardo’s orchestra in the late 1930s. Does a stretch of night-club playing, beside songs for Guy Lombardo’s orchestra, point to Marks working in more than one corner of popular music? Marks’s song “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” was based on a poem of the same name, written by his brother-in-law, Robert L. May. Marks used just over 100 words in the song and kept the chord progression simple. His first draft did not quite work, so he kept tinkering. Two singers were offered the song first, and in 1949 Gene Autry, a Western star, recorded it with reluctance, as his wife had to talk him into it. Just over 100 words, beside a simple chord progression and a recording by Gene Autry, may suggest a song built from few parts. Marks founded St. Nicholas Music in 1949 and served as a director of ASCAP, the Association of Composers, Authors and Publishers, from 1957 through 1961. A television film based on the story and song first aired in 1964, with Marks composing the score. His 1967 commercial for GE won the Gold Medal Award of the International Film and TV Festival. Set beside the piano lessons that stopped after two years, a television score and a Gold Medal commercial show a life in music that took several forms. St. Nicholas Music in 1949, beside Gene Autry’s recording in 1949, may hint at a year when several strands of Marks’s work met. Marks was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1981.
