I’ve known for several weeks he was unable to do our November 19 concert because of his condition. Intellectually, I was prepared: Emotionally I’m dealing with the reality and struggling - as is usual - to reaffirm once again that it is a gift to feel so deeply about some one or some thing and is worth the pain of loss.

I connected with Charlie twelve years ago in the beginning of my singing career. When I moved to the Sarasota area I sought him out...well, I was simply seeking the best accompanist... and that accompanist was named Charlie Prawdzik.

One night at our first gig together at Bistro at Islands End in Anna Maria, I called for the tune “What’ll I Do”...counted it off :” One - two, one, two, three, four...

”Charlie looked up from the piano and said quietly...”That’s a waltz, you know.”

I said, “Yes, I know...So? “

“You counted it off in 4/4”, he said gently.

“So?” “I’ll sing it correctly” I said pleasantly, flailing my hand in the air....”Just play it.”

He smiled, played it...I sang it as a waltz. He had what I lacked myself; the technical aspects...but he knew I sang it from my heart and that was good enough for Charlie... We connected that night. We became musical soul mates. We were always each other’s accompanists: He listened. I heard.

All of you receiving this email are also connected to Charlie through our music - our gigs, concerts and recordings...and many knew him personally.

What some of you might not know about is his own fabulous recording, “Dreamworld” , a collection of elegantly performed standards plus two original compositions, “Cantique”, and the title tune, “Dreamworld”.

Check it out on: www.cdbaby.com/prawdzik We are fortunate to have this available.


You’re the best, Charlie Prawdzik. We’ll always be connected...but your buddy misses you...Diane, November 5, 2010.]]> http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#38 Fri, 12 Nov 2010 00:00:00 -0800 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#37 DjazzL@aol.com

Stella's has a wonderful, creative new chef this summer who will be presenting Bah's entree's as well as many of his own creations, I'm sure.

To add to your overall dining experience, we intend to have a super time musically and hope you'll be there to enjoy it with us. Tune requests are always welcome.

This year the hours will be 8 PM-11PM.]]> http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#34 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 00:00:00 -0700 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#33 My pianist here in Sarasota, Charlie Prawdzik, performed beautifully-as did Billy Pillucere and Mark Neuenschwander on bass; Johnny Moore, drums; and Dave Trefethen on guitar.

An added treat to the mix this time around was Chris Pegis on cello who for years was first chair of the Florida West Coast Symphony. Chris now freelances and is Founder and Artistic Director of Amici Chamber Players.

Also on the recording for a couple tunes is world-reknown trombonist, John Allred.]]> http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#33 Fri, 06 Mar 2009 00:00:00 -0800 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#32 Mark Neuenschwander, bass; Johnny Moore, drums; and Dave Trefethen, guitar.]]> http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#32 Fri, 02 Jan 2009 00:00:00 -0800 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#31 http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#31 Wed, 17 Dec 2008 00:00:00 -0800 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#30 http://dianelinscott.com/news.html#30 Wed, 03 Dec 2008 00:00:00 -0800 Singer of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook - DIANE LINSCOTT - News
