Chick Corea - Spain (Full Orchestra) A radical—but highly noteworthy and Grammy winning—live performance of Corea’s first original symphonic work, featuring the London Philharmonic Orchestra and his Origin group performing a Mozart-inspired concerto and perhaps the definitive version of “Spain.” Corea plays with as much passion here as any of his albums, most everyone else is equal to the task, and in short this is as fine a blend of of classical and jazz as anyone can reasonably expect to hear.

Everytime we watch or listen to Chick Corea, it's still hard to comprehend he's no longer with us. The hurt still runs deep. Today would have been his 80th birthday. He left a legacy for us and future generations. Here's a performance of "Spain" from Tokyo from 2 years ago. Please watch till the end and see how he engaged and communicated not just with his fellow musicians (John Patitucci and Dave Weckl), but his audience as well. | JazzCorner
