Chick Corea, 1941-2021
-
In a different vein, this was my first contact with Chick Corea and one of his better known compositions, I think I first heard it on vinyl in about 1979. Dig the funky modern technology!
What a lineup - Stan Getz representing the old guard with Corea, Stanley Clarke and Tony Williams. I know, it's mostly saxophone, but we need a bit of balance....
Link to video@Doctor-Phibes , that's great!
Love that Stan Getz Quartet video.
Every artist performed great individually and the entire band performed great as an ensemble.
The music itself, as a composition, is a masterpiece.
I suspect this will be the rare few pieces that I can listen to many times and still be awed and entertained every time for a long time. -
When I was a teen, returns to forever’s romantic warrior was the go to “get stoned” music.

Pass that doobie!
Seriously though, I have that album on vinyl and it is still spectacular after all these years.

I checked my Chick Corea transcription book and the prelude is not there.
So... just screenshot each youtube page of notes to print.
Am I the only 🤪 -
That’s the Scriabin Prelude I was referring to in my earlier post.
It has a particular attraction to me as a music miniature, not least because it evokes very pleasant personal memories of a sunny autumn afternoon walking along the Garden Ring park surrounding downtown Moscow amid the mature oak, maple and linden trees.

Wow.
