The Music of Chick Corea
Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Chick Corea

Performance

Surprise! This perennial favorite is back, but this time with jazz pianist Chick Corea at the helm. Corea’s staggering career, spanning more than 50 years, is a torrent of creative and professional highlights.

His last UMS appearance, a duet concert with Herbie Hancock, was a sellout, and demonstrated why the New York Times called him “a luminary, ebullient and eternally youthful.” Corea’s fearless creative spirit has earned him a slew of accolades along the way, including the country’s highest honor for a jazz artist when he was named an NEA Jazz Master in 2006. “The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra is ridiculously tight, executing tricky maneuvers like a fighter jet.” (DownBeat)

NOTE: Due to Michigan Basketball’s appearance in the Final Four on Saturday evening, we are moving the concert to 8:30 pm.

Go Blue!
