It’s never been hard to notice with his playing, how strong the influence of also being a percussionist is on nearly every aspect of his choices on piano Clear precise rhythms, impeccable time, and that wonderful two handed approach to linear ideas What a great video, I might have to try to transcribe some of this and see what’s going on there! Thanks so much
Welcome man, the era in which he developed his craft played a huge role in the mechanics and techniques of his presentation. The sixties, seventies, and eighties is what I call the musical Renaissance. You're talking about blues, jazz, rock, r&b, psychedelic, folk, funk, and in Chicks case classical training. Those array of innovations equipped him with the tools to organize and present an artform sealed with his signature.
Chick gave a brilliant performance of something else at this piano but I can't find the video anymore. What did he play? I think it was an original set of variations of some sort in minor. I need keywords to search for it. Can anyone help?
Yep, you're right. That was a whole different world back then. When Walkmans and Cellular phones were in demand. Not to mention the latest and greatest invention of that time, "Compact Dics".

Beautiful........you can feel it in your body!
Yes, ma'am, his sound was captivating. He'll be missed.
Chick Corea was a true master of the piano.
Yes, and every week, on Facebook, he faithfully shared his masterful skills. Playing thirty minutes solos to the time of his transition.
from the musical "Kiss Me Kate" Cole Porter
Pure beauty
Yes, I feel like he tapped into a portion of the writer's sentiments.
Such a wonderful but undiscovered improvisation! I wish it didn't cut in the middle of his playing!
Yes, sir, I agree, wished I could have captured the whole performance too. I can't remember what happened when I recorded it.
@@hebcole No, not your fault. The show was edited to cut right in the middle of his playing. At least we have this much to enjoy!
@@xpo186 Right on Bruh.
Beautiful "heartbeat"brilliant !
It's amazing how one can summon musical notes to extract thoughts and themes from the inner soul.
His music is naturally "unforced" which is something extremely rare in real art !
@@norbertsarkozy Yes, absolutely, well said.
Truly beautiful!
a masterpiece...

Woooww thanks for sharing such a wonderful video.
No problem, my pleasure. Thanks for chiming in.
❤
What's the right noun ? Genius ? Master ? Anyway, thanks Chick ....thanks again
Chick-Gen-Mas... The genius was so masterful that his legacy will be studied and appreciated for generations to come.
Yamaha U1? If so, I have the same model piano at home!
Classic piece of ebony and ivory.
Recorded before people could easily google the name of a song and find the songwriter.
Yep, you're right. That was a whole different world back then. When Walkmans and Cellular phones were in demand. Not to mention the latest and greatest invention of that time, "Compact Dics".
😭 wish he was there with us😭😭😭😭
yes, but if there could be any consolation, the talent that he possessed is causing us to communicate at the very moment. That's powerful.
Does anyone know the name of the show that this recording was taken from?
"New Visions" from the mid-'80s to the early '90s.
