The military personnel wHO popularized unverbalised vocal choruses and light orchestral complement on a mix of popular standards and modern-day hits of the sixties, Ray Conniff was a trombone musician for Bunny Berigan's Orchestra and Bob Crosby's Bobcats ahead beingness leased as an arranger by Mitch Miller for Columbia Records in 1954. After he wrote the charts for several sizeable Columbia hits during the mid-'50s, Conniff became a solo creative person as well, applying his arranging techniques to instrumental easy-listening for the thriving adult album market store. The result, dozen Top Ten LPs and well over 50 trillion total albums sold, cemented his position as peerless of the top LP peter Sellers of all time, only his increasingly watered-down and commercially focused arrangements gained few thomas Young fans by the ending of the sixties. Though he continued transcription and touring the world into the nineties, Conniff's albums slipped off the charts in the early '70s.


Innate in November 1916 in Attleboro, Massachusetts, Ray Conniff gained much of his musical go through inside the house. His father, a trombone player, light-emitting diode a local lot while his mother played the pianissimo. Ray began ahead a local ring while in high school -- picking up the trombone for the beginning sentence not long before -- and began writing arrangements for it; after commencement exercise, he stirred to Boston and began playing with Dan Murphy's Musical Skippers (besides playing and transcription, Conniff drove the band about). By the mid-'30s, he was ready for the swelled time, landing in New York simply later the birth of the fat dangle geological era. He comped around Manhattan for several age, and by 1937 landed an arranging/playing job with Bunny Berigan. Two old age later, he stirred to Bob Crosby's Bobcats, one of the hottest bands of the time, though Conniff stayed for only a year before joining up with Artie Shaw and afterward Glen Gray.


With the coming of American involution in World War II by 1941, Conniff coupled the Army, though the nighest he came to Wake Island was Hollywood, where he worked as an arranger with Armed Forces Radio. At the conclusion of the warfare, Conniff worked with Harry James merely lost interest in arrangement when boP touched to center stage during the late '40s. Completely divorced from the medicine business, he studied conducting and medicine possibility during the early '50s, emerging by 1954 to take on a position with Columbia Records and ill-famed pop producer Mitch Miller. The following year, he put his theories to practice with Don Cherry (the vocaliser, non the jazz trumpeter) on a Top Five hit, "Band of Gold." Close on its heels were some more than full-grown hits of 1956-57, including the bit ones "Vocalizing the Blues" by Guy Mitchell and "Chances Are" by Johnny Mathis, summation Top Five entries by Johnnie Ray ("Simply Walking in the Rain"), Frankie Laine ("Moonlight Gambler") and Marty Robbins ("A White Sport Coat [And a Pink Carnation]"). Columbia, doubtless ecstatic over the succeeder of its organizer, agreed to let Conniff record an subservient record album, and the result, 'S Wonderful (1956), exhausted months on the album charts. With a like spirit (though far tamer results) to Lambert, Hendricks & Ross' album of the same year, Sing a Song of Basie -- which canned classic Basie orchestra solos into vocal parts -- Conniff arranged parts for an cushy chorus of singers just now as he had with instrumentalists in the past. 'S Wonderful was desktop subservient music for adults wHO tranquil liked to listen the human voice, and the technique grew to define the "Muzaky" feel of much of the adult pop of the fifties and '60s.


During the rest of the late '50s, four Ray Conniff albums reached the Top Ten, light-emitting diode by the gold-certified 'S Marvelous and Concert in Rhythm. Conniff did well in the early '60s as well, with pop paper albums like Pronounce It with Music (A Touch of Latin), Memories Are Made of This, So Much in Love, 'S Continental, and We Wish You a Merry Christmas, which continued to chart during the holiday season of the future six-spot long time after its 1962 release engagement. The rise of rock & wave in the mid-'60s apparently hurt Conniff's record sales, though in 1966 the inclusion of "Lara's Theme" in the film Doctor Zhivago resulted in Conniff's only significant singles-chart placing at figure nine, and a million-selling record album with Somewhere My Love. During the late '60s, he began to include the softer side of tilt and Bacharach-David pop into his repertoire, with artists from Simon & Garfunkel to the Carpenters and the Fifth Dimension all receiving the Conniff treatment (aboard more than confutative attempts, such as "Theme from 'Shaft'"). He continued to criminal record albums and perform to his gravid Latin American hearing into the nineties. On October 12, 2002, Conniff passed off after falling down and hit his head. He had suffered a stroke months prior, merely Conniff's health continued to deteriorate. He was 85.
