미국의 전설적인 folk 가수 겸 작곡가 Kate Wolf의 담백한 목소리와, 여성 기타리스트 Nina Gerber의 환상적인 연주가 어우러진 서정적인 노래입니다. Great Divide의 사전적 의미는 로키산맥을 따라 이어지는 북미 대륙의 대분수령이지만, 삶과 죽음 사이의 경계를 은유적으로 표현한다고도 하네요. 노래 가사에 나오는 Owl (부엉이)는, 미국 원주민 문화에서는 죽음을 상징하는 동물로, 아프리카 문화에서는 부엉이 울음소리를 듣는 사람은 곧 죽을 것이라는 의미가 있다고도 합니다. 백혈병으로 44세라는 이른 나이에 생을 마감해야만 했던 Kate Wolf가, 돌이킬 수 없는 본인의 죽음을 예감하고, 지나가 버린 과거를 회상하며 만든..한 편의 시 같은 음악입니다.

Comment ai-je pu après autant d’années passer à coté d’une aussi belle voix. Merci Kate. Dommage que tu ne sois plus avec nous

This beautiful song hooked me on Kate Wolf 40 years ago- and the background here is just perfect.

Hi Cathie..I just want to thank you (belatedly) ..New to this great divide song by Kate wolf I was staggered by the beautiful harmonica accompaniment..but didn’t know who it was...so I asked online within this utube video If anyone could help ? Somebody gave me a ‘heart ‘ comment but no answer...it was looking for a response skimming through other comments, and then saw yr comment of a yr ago ( ! ) - Mentioning ‘Norton Buffalo ! ‘ ! ....I will try to explore history of his amazing talent...hopefully. If you spotted his playing you ‘may’ know more - Hope you find this ...and hope you could share more with me ! So sad that also with Kate it seems he has crossed that Divide..What a beautiful song and harp combination..THANK YOU. ...ps (I am a beginner on harp at 75 yrs Old -sadly !)

@@gortagnan Hi...You are most welcome!! I was so very fortunate to have met Norton when he played with several other well known musicians here in Santa Cruz, CA many years ago. He had a blind friend with him and asked me if I would be his companion that evening to make sure he was safe etc. And Kate Wolf...gone wayyy too soon...I simply love her voice and music. Don't apologize for starting your passion at 75...heck, I'm 75 this year and only began to sing and perform myself about 7 years ago. I'm going to try to see if my trio will do a few of her songs. I am also trying to learn to play guitar...a real challenge. Would love to stay in touch with you...many stories to share. Cheers, Catt

@carnieporter168....sorry for delay again, I have had trouble finding yr message again as there are many versions of this K Wolf song ! Now I know it’s on the utube live version via Nighthawk / uploaded..(Get a bit lost with all this technology!)..At this point I have now seen much more of Norton and find it all fascinating and informative via searching...what a lovely guy he was also no ego for such amazing ability...Love his video with Roy Rogers in their home just playing acoustic ‘ long hard road’ Have you seen it ? But it breaks my heart as apparently he was already very ill when they played that one...Hope I can hear more of your own playing guitar, news and singing some time, but how ? As I said I am way behind with technology unfortunately ..I think I already contacted you but can’t find it ! Pretty hopeless right now but am Very tired ..my excuse !

Yes guitar (I do some ! ) as well as harp and have a neglected banjo ....and hardly time for studying just one ! My wife and I are at a crossroads in our life and we have to either stay in our home and minimise ..Or downsize and minimise and Move ! So it’s all physically Hard graft whatever decision we makeo - hence I am so tired at times...all I want to do this year is practise learn and play more....No such thing as retirement yet ! Anyway thanks to you I now have another hero to follow and inspire me in the few hours available ..We are based UK so it’s fascinating to hear of other lives in other country esp’ America with its huge pool of amazing talent..If you can suggest a better or easier way to keep in touch (occasionally) please do ! No fear no scam just a music freak trying to fit in for lost time ! Gordon..

I guess we are all far too busy to ‘overindulge’ - even in music ! My best wishes and Good luck with yr trio and yr own musical journey....G..
