The Celebrity Series of Boston Presents Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea

Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea come to Symphony Hall for a duo performance on Sunday, April 12th at 7:30PM

Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock stunned jazz audiences in 1978 when, in the midst of jazz-rock’s enormous popularity, they toured as an acoustic piano duet. That spirited tour produced two classic albums: Corea Hancock and An Evening with Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock: In Concert. Corea and Hancock have never again recorded together as a duet. The Celebrity Series checks in on that historic collaboration between two master musicians.

“[Chick Corea is]… a luminary, ebullient, and eternally youthful.” – The New York Times

“The sheer rhythmic dynamism, relentless invention and all-over-the-keyboard virtuosity of his performance… suggested, in fact, that [Herbie Hancock] may be entering a new period of creativity and rejuvenation.” – Chicago Tribune
