CHICK COREA
Hi there,
There’s a lot of excitement surrounding the release of Chick’s new album Solo Piano: Portraits… ( watch Part 1: The launch video here if you haven’t seen it).
Wow – this review says it all:
“Although the stylistic range is vast, each track bears the hallmark of Corea’s precise articulation, firm touch and vivid imagination.
Add in Corea’s relaxed, spoken-word introductions and this lovely collection of compositions and sketches adds up to a portrait of Corea himself.” **** Financial Times (UK)
Over the next week we’ll be showing you 5 more spoken-word excerpts from the album … Enjoy!
In this second excerpt Chick talks about his history with Stevie Wonder, and what Stevie told him—plus, hear Chick’s gorgeous solo interpretation of Stevie’s “Pastime Paradise.”
Pick up your own copy of Portraits in the limited-edition Artistry of Chick Bundle. Find it exclusively at Chick Corea Shop – it’s not available anywhere else on the internet, not even on Amazon!
Yours in music,
Dan

PS – Stay tuned tomorrow for another quick video preview, with Chick’s memories of Thelonious Monk (part 3 of 6).
