rehearsalI asked my friend Ralph to go for meand since he's a musicianhe
should know what it's all about. Ralph came back and saidIt's not so bad. First
at the very beginning
you have to do something exactly right
because you're starting the rhythm out for the rest of the orchestra
which will mesh in with it. But after the orchestra comes in
it's a matter of ad-
libbing
and there will be times when we have to pause for speeches
but I think we'll be able to figure that out from the cues the orchestra conductor
gives.
In the meantime I had gotten the director to accept Ralph tooso the two of us would be on the stage. He'd play the tumba and I'd play the
bongos--so that made it a helluva lot easier for me.
So Ralph showed me what the rhythm was. It must have been only about twenty or thirty beatsbut it had to be just so. I'd never had to play
anything just soand it was very hard for me to get it right. Ralph would patiently explainleft hand
and right hand
and two left hands
then right.
I worked very hard
and finally
very slowly
I began to get the rhythm just right. It took me a helluva long time-many days--to get it.
