What are some quotes about Charles Dickens?
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was a British novelist, the son of a clerk in the navy pay office. Painful childhood memories, notably his father's imprisonment in a debtors' prison, and his own work in a warehouse in Southwark, were a formative influence on his writings. In 1814 he moved to London, then to Chatham, where he received some schooling. He found a menial post with a solicitor, then took up journalism, becoming a reporter at Doctors' Commons, and at 22 joined a London newspaper. He published various papers in the Monthly Magazine, following this up with sketches and papers for the Evening Chronicle. In 1836 his Sketches by Boz and Pickwick Papers were published; and that year he married Catherine, the daughter of his friend George Hogarth. They had 10 children called charles,mary,katie,walter,francis,alfred,sydney,henry,dora and edward, but were separated in 1858. Dickens worked relentlessly, producing several successful novels which created a Shakespearean gallery of characters (including Fagin, Scrooge, Uriah Heep, Little Nell) and also campaigned against many of the social evils of his time. The novels first appeared in monthly instalments, notably Oliver Twist (1837-9), Nicholas Nickleby (1838-9), and The Old Curiosity Shop (1840-1). Thereafter a great part of his life was spent abroad. His later novels include David Copperfield (1849-50), Bleak House (1852-3), A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-1), and the unfinished The Mystery of Edwin Drood (1870). In addition, he gave talks and readings, and wrote many pamphlets, plays, and letters. His novels have provided the basis for many successful adaptations in the theatre, in the cinema, on radio, and on television.
Yes, he went to rehab for his 20 year long heroin addiction.
Pre-50's Nat King Cole was a dominant influence on a young Ray Charles. Ray obviously dug the King's genre bending piano, as that would come to be a thing Ray was known for later in his career. Nat's style was all at once Jazz, Gospel and Blues and he had a lot of chops to spare. Nat's phrasing also was probably a big influence on Ray, as it was on countless other singers and horn players.
What type of voice did ray Charles have?
Ray Charles voice does not fit any 'classical' voice type. The best way I could describe his voice is as a baritenor. He had the tone and richness of a baritone but lacked the 'bass' notes even high baritones can sing. The incredible thing about his voice is his powerful belting ability, it is a musical technique. As well as the passionate nature of his voice. A lot of rock singers would be described as 'middle voices' such as the baritenor, because non-classical singers can sing however they want. Sometimes it is the ugliness, that is beautiful.
What school did Ray Charles attended?
