Ken Ehrlich produced his final Grammy telecast Jan. 26 … and, through the sad fluke of Kobe Bryant dying the day of the show, there was a direct segue to the first live broadcast of Ehrlich’s…
, and why this felt substantially different than any other program Ehrlich has worked on.
One thing she kind of had to understand — and to her credit, she did — was that because this thing was late in coming together technically, I didn’t have all the bells and whistles that I have on a show that I usually do with her, whether it’s the Grammys or other shows we’ve done, like when we did her in Central Park a few years ago for Global Citizens Festival. There was a basketball game coming in four or five hours later. I didn’t have all the lighting support that I needed.
Certainly Alicia — I don’t know if you Tivoed or DVR-ed the thing, if you still have it, but if you look at the end of her performance… This was a sports crew. And I’m not saying they’re not as good as the crews that we work with, because they are, but it’s a different discipline. And the director got it. There’s a shot at the end of Alicia’s performance where he’s on a medium close-up, and she lifts her face heavenward, and you’re transcendent. She’s transcendent. So they all felt it.
I never assume that. In this particular case, you’re probably right. For the 40-some years that I’ve been here, I have not seen many moments that do bring people together so universally. This city has been touched in an incredibly emotional way ever since that day. And I’m not even sure that some of us who have been touched by it realized the depth of what it was going to be.
