Winner of two Grammys, the album documents this trio interpreting classic Chick compositions (such as вЂњSpainвЂќ), plus previously unreleased pieces by the pianist (вЂњPiano Sonata: The MoonвЂќ), an array of jazz standards and even a Prelude by Alexander Scriabin. ChickвЂ™s duo partnerships with Gary Burton and Herbie Hancock have endured decades.Д¬hickвЂ™s 2014 release ranks as a new classic in his discography: Trilogy, a live triple-disc set with bassist Christian McBride and drummer Brian Blade. As The New York Times has said, he is вЂњa luminary, ebullient and eternally youthful.вЂќД¬hickвЂ™s classic albums as a leader or co-leader include Now He Sings, Now He SobsВ (with Miroslav Vitous and Roy Haynes), Paris ConcertВ (with Circle: Anthony Braxton, Dave Holland and Barry Altschul) and Return to ForeverВ (with Return to Forever: Joe Farrell, Stanley Clarke, Airto Moreira and Flora Purim), as well as Crystal SilenceВ (with Gary Burton), My Spanish Heart, Remembering Bud Powell, and Further ExplorationsВ (with Eddie Gomez and Paul Motian).ДЄ venturesome collaborator, Chick has teamed with artists from jazz legend Lionel Hampton to new-generation pianist Stefano Bollani, from banjoist BГ©la Fleck to vocal superstar Bobby McFerrin. Born in 1941 in Massachusetts, Chick remains a tireless creative spirit, continually reinventing himself through his art. Underscoring this, he has been named Artist of the Year three times this decade in the DownBeat Readers Poll. Yet Chick has never been more productive than in the 21st century, whether playing acoustic piano or electric keyboards, leading multiple bands, performing solo or collaborating with a whoвЂ™s who of music. From straight-ahead to avant-garde, bebop to jazz-rock fusion, childrenвЂ™s songs to chamber and symphonic works, Chick has touched an astonishing number of musical bases in his career since playing with the genre-shattering bands of Miles Davis in the late вЂ™60s and early вЂ™70s. The keyboardist, composer and bandleader is a DownBeat Hall of Famer and NEA Jazz Master, as well as the fourth-most nominated artist in Grammy Awards history with 63 nods вЂ“ and 22 wins, in addition to a number of Latin Grammys. Chick Corea has attained iconic status in music.
