ʻO ka moʻolelo o Josh Groban ua piha i nā hanana mālamalama a me ke komo ʻana i nā papahana like ʻole e hiki ʻole ke hoʻohālikelike i kāna ʻoihana me kekahi huaʻōlelo.
ʻO ka mea mua, ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea pena kaulana loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Loaʻa iā ia he 8 mau mele mele kaulana i ʻike ʻia e ka poʻe hoʻolohe a me nā mea hoʻohewa, kekahi mau hana i ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni a me ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, a me kekahi mau papahana pilikanaka.
ʻO Josh Groban ka mea i loaʻa i nā makana mele hanohano, me kahi koho Grammy ʻelua manawa, hoʻokahi koho Emmy, a me nā makana he nui. I ka hopena o nā makahiki 2000, ua koho ʻo Time magazine i ka mea hoʻokani pila no ka inoa ʻo "Person of the Year".
Kaila mele o Josh Groban
Nui nā manaʻo like ʻole e pili ana i ke ʻano o ka haku mele ʻana i kāna mau hana. Manaʻo kekahi poʻe hoʻohewa he mele pop, a kapa ʻia kekahi he crossover maʻamau. ʻO ka crossover maʻamau ka hui pū ʻana o nā ʻano he nui e like me ka pop, rock a me ka classic.
Makemake ka mea mele i ke koho lua ke kamaʻilio ʻo ia e pili ana i ke ʻano e kākau ai i nā mele. Ua wehewehe ʻo ia i kēia ma ka ʻoiaʻiʻo he nui ka mana o ke mele kahiko iā ia i kona wā kamaliʻi. Me ia nō kona hoʻokumu ʻana ma ke ʻano he kanaka.
No laila, hiki ke lohe maoli ʻia ka mana o nā mele kahiko i kēlā me kēia mele. Ma ka manawa like, hoʻohana akamai ka mea pena i nā mea hana a me nā ʻenehana o nā mele pop hou. Me kēia hui ʻana, pono ʻo ia i ka mahalo ʻia mai ka lehulehu.
ʻO ka hoʻomaka o ke ala hana o Josh Groban
Ua hānau ʻia ka mea mele ma ka lā 27 Pepeluali, 1981 ma Los Angeles (Kalepa). ʻOiai he haumana, hele ikaika ke keiki i nā papa ma nā pōʻai keaka. Ma ke kula kiʻekiʻe, hoʻomaka ʻo ia e lawe i nā haʻawina leo.
Na kāna kumu i kōkua i ka holomua mua o ke kanaka ʻōpio. Hāʻawi ʻo ia i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o ke keikikāne (kahi i hoʻokani ai ʻo Josh i ka aria All I Ask of You mai ka mele mele ʻo The Phantom of the Opera) i ka mea hana ʻo David Foster.
Pīhoihoi ʻo Foster i ke kālena o ke kālena ʻōpio a ua hoʻoholo e hui pū me ka mea hoʻokani pila. ʻO ka hopena mua, ʻo ia ka hana a ke keiki ma ka hoʻolauna ʻana o ke Kiaʻāina Kaleponi ʻo Gray Davis.
A i ʻelua makahiki ma hope (ma 2000), me ke kōkua o Foster Josh, ua kau inoa ʻia ʻo ia i ka lepili mele ʻo Warner Bros. mooolelo.
Ua hoʻokumu ʻo David Foster iā ia iho ma ke ʻano he mea hana a ke kanaka ʻōpio a kōkua iā ia e hoʻopaʻa i ka disc solo mua a Josh Groban. ʻO ia ka mea hana i koi i ka nānā ʻana i nā mele kahiko.
ʻAʻole i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album i ka manawa i kono ai ʻo Sarah Brightman (he mea mele kaulana i hana ma ke kuʻekuʻe o nā ʻano pop a me nā mele kahiko) i ka hōkū lele e hele i kahi huakaʻi nui me ia. No laila ua mālama ʻia nā ʻaha mele nui mua me ke komo ʻana o Josh.
Ma mua o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o ka disc solo, i ka makahiki 2001, ua lilo ka mea mele i lālā o nā hōʻike televise a me nā hanana aloha. Ma kekahi o ia mau mea, ua ʻike ʻia ka mea hoʻokani pila e ka mea hana ʻo David E. Kelly, ka mea i mahalo ʻia i ka hana ʻana o Josh i nā mele solo, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi kuleana nona ma kāna moʻolelo TV ʻo Ally McBeal.
ʻO ke kuleana, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ia ka mea nui, ua makemake ʻia e ka poʻe ʻAmelika (ma muli o ke mele ʻO You're Still You i hana ʻia ma ka moʻo), no laila ua hoʻi hou ke ʻano o Josh i nā pale i nā kau ma hope.
Hoʻokuʻu ʻia o ka album mua. Haʻi mele
A laila, i ka pau ʻana o ka makahiki 2001, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka disc solo a ka mea hoʻokani. Ma luna o ia mea, ma waho aʻe o nā mele a ka mea kākau, ua hoʻokani ʻia nā haku mele a nā haku mele kaulana e like me Bach, Ennio Morricone a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Ma hope o kona hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana, hoʻokani ka mea hoʻokani i nā hanana hanohano loa (ka Nobel Prize ma Oslo, ka ʻaha mele Kalikimaka ma ka Vatican, etc.) a hana i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka disc ʻelua.
Ua kapa ʻia ka album hou ʻo Closer a ua hōʻoia ʻia ka platinum 5 mau manawa i ka manawa hoʻokahi. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma ka ʻuhane o ka diski mua, akā naʻe, e like me Groban iā ia iho, "hōʻike maikaʻi ʻo ia i ka honua i loko."
Loaʻa pū kekahi i nā mele maʻamau (e laʻa me Caruso) aia ma ka papa inoa mele like me nā mele hou (kahi uhi uhi o Linkin Park's You Raise Me Up).
I ka makahiki 2004, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻelua mele kani no nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni kaulana i ka honua: Troy a me The Polar Express. Ua kaulana kēia mau mele i ka mea pena ma ʻō aku o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Loaʻa kahi manawa e hoʻonohonoho ai i kahi huakaʻi honua.
ʻO nā album ʻehā e hiki mai ana (Awake, Noel, A Collection Illuminations a me All That Echoes) i alakaʻi i ke kūʻai aku ma US a me ʻEulopa i nā pule mua loa ma hope o ko lākou hoʻokuʻu ʻana.
Ua mālama ʻo Josh i kāna ʻano kumu. ʻAʻole keʻakeʻa kēia i ka hui pinepine ʻana me nā ʻelele o nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole: rock, soul, jazz, country, etc.
Ma ka like, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā hoʻopaʻa leo o kāna mau ʻaha mele, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma ka DVD a me nā kahua pūnaewele.
Josh Groban: i kēia manawa
Ke kūʻai maikaʻi nei nā album hou a ka mea hoʻokani pila, ʻo Stages and Bridges, akā loaʻa nā loiloi maikaʻi ʻole mai ka poʻe hoʻohewa.
Mai ka makahiki 2016, ua hoʻomaka ka mea hoʻokani pila e hoʻohui i kāna ʻoihana ma ke ʻano he mele a hana i ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni ma Broadway. A hiki i kēia manawa, hoʻokani ʻo ia i ke mele mele "Natasha, Pierre a me ka Big Comet." Ua kaulana loa ka mele mele i ka lehulehu.
Ke hoʻopaʻa nei ʻo Josh Groban i kahi album hou. Hāʻawi mau ʻo ia i nā ʻahamele ma ʻAmelika a me ʻEulopa.
