Bernie Williams Previously, he performed in bright light, but one performance at the beginning of next year could be the largest for him – even with four rings of the world series.
former New York Yankiz The central field player, a long-standing musician who studied at the High School of performing arts and persecuted the dreams of baseball, will play on January 13 in the famous Carnegie Hall with opera singer Jonathan Tetelman.

“My butterflies in my stomach are already starting to run. I know this guy. [Tetelman] It is a veteran of such performances, ”Williams said in a recent interview with Fox News Digital. “But I often give an analogy with baseball: you know largely how successful the baseball player is – statistics, contracts and all that, your numbers and music are a bit difficult to determine.
“And the only way to determine how successful you are is to find out by the people you play with, and by the places where you play. So Jonathan, cooperation with him and performances at this place is the first place in the list of any musician. Therefore, it is a great honor for me to be part of this process. ”
Williams, perhaps, has four rings of the world series, and he played in the brightest light, but even he needed advice before this performance.
“Good luck,” Tetelman joked. “Let's be ready. Let's be ready. Let's be ready for everything. I think that the scene is one of those things where you never know what will happen. You never know what the audience will feel. You never know what will go wrong, but what will go wrong, and you just need to swim with the flow, just feel music and let it lead to where it goes.”

A well -known saying says that professional athletes die twice, but when Williams resigned, he almost immediately saw the opportunity to engage in his other passion.
“My experience of returning to school specifically for the sake of music was probably one of the best decisions that I have ever made after baseball. I realized that I have a musical future, probably as soon as I finished playing baseball with Yankees, ”Williams said. “We had a slightly controversial process with negotiations on a contract, and they offered me a contract in the lower league and this. And I thought: “You know that maybe it's time for me to move away from all this and try to invent myself again.”
“For some time this musical mistake has already lived in me, and I thought:“ You know what? Maybe I just should study the opportunity to become someone else. ” Although I can’t call it a career, this is a second chance to do what I really love in life and this is my passion. ”
Music And baseball “This is“ another muscle, ”Williams said, but there are many comparisons.

“There is a common place where you really see how all your hard work has fruit. You are part of the baseball team that should unite, but this is not so different from this, ”he said. “We are a team, and there are many people behind us who really support us and hope for success. These are different muscles, but at the same time it is the same. A lot of hard work, preparation, confidence in your abilities, do not get hung up on your mistakes and just let it break. This is one thing that is very nervous, but at the same time very worried. ”
