Innovator, music pioneer, composer and pianist Chick Corea pairs with the incomparable king of American jazz orchestras, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall for a powerhouse concert on March 25, 2018.
Since embarking on a solo career in 1966, Corea has been at the forefront of jazz, both as a renowned pianist forging new ground as an innovative electric keyboardist with his acoustic jazz bands Return to Forever, the Elektric Band, and now, the electro/acoustic Vigil.
Of one icon about another, Sting said about Corea, “He completely devastated the landscape. It was like scorched earth — so musical, so powerful, so incredibly virtuosic.” And the Chicago Tribune wrote of JLCO, “In a way, this evening showed that there’s really more than one Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. You could hear the band continually redefining itself through the ethereal tone and translucent textures.”
