Chick Corea Returns to Blue Note

Chick Corea (pictured) will return to New York’s Blue Note from Feb. 1-6 as Chick Corea & Touchstone to revisit his 1982 album of the same name. Accompanied by members of flamenco guitarist Paco de Lucia’s band – Carles Benavent on bass, Tom Brechtlein on durms, Rubem Cantas on percussion and Jorge Pardo on saxophone and flute – Corea will not only return to the heart of the Spanish-influenced compositions on Touchstone, but will also present new flamenco-based music with this quartet.

Corea has drawn on his Spanish heritage for inspiration throughout his four-decade career, as can be seen in his renowned work Spain.
