Notes:

“Whenever Chick Corea and Bela Fleck take to the stage, genres always fly fast and furious. Performing together, these two master musicians weave duets out of staggering virtuosity creating mind-blowing magic performances. Says BÈla: ìevery time Chick and I have played together it has been an extraordinary experience. I have to go beyond my best to hang with Chick!î Chick Corea’s groundbreaking band Return To Forever launched the fusion era of the ’70s. His work with flamenco great Paco de Lucia led to the formation of Touchstone, a band whose fiery Latinismo music has bridged the world of flamenco and jazz. His Piano Concerto No. 2 headlined the Vienna’s Mozart Celebrations this year. Chick’s whole career is the stuff of jazz lore, an amalgamation of influential, limit-stretching, genre-bending musical experiences that have garnered him 12 Grammy awards and legions of fans worldwide. BÈla Fleck, considered the premiere banjo player in the world, lives to improvise and loves to work with unexpected musical fusions. Fleck has won 8 Grammys and is the only musician to be nominated for Grammys in jazz, bluegrass, pop, country, gospel, composition and world music categories.” (from the Planet Bluegerass Website)
