Chick Corea Caricature, illustrated here performing at Tivoli Gardens Copenhagen, Denmark during the Copenhagen Jazzfestival July 1, 1992, age 51.
Corea was an American jazz composer, keyboardist, bandleader, and occasional percussionist. His compositions “Spain”, “500 Miles High”, “La Fiesta”, “Armando’s Rhumba” and “Windows” are widely considered jazz standards.
As a member of Miles Davis’s band in the late 1960s, he participated in the birth of jazz fusion. In the 1970s he formed Return to Forever. Along with Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner, Keith Jarrett and Bill Evans, he is considered one of the major piano players to have emerged in jazz during the post-John Coltrane era.
His father, a jazz trumpeter who led a Dixieland band in Boston in the 1930s and 1940s, introduced him to the piano at the age of four. Surrounded by jazz, he was influenced at an early age by bebop and Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Bud Powell, Horace Silver, and Lester Young. When he was eight, he took up drums, which would influence his use of the piano as a percussion instrument.
Corea won 23 Grammy Awards and was nominated over 60 times.
Corea died from cancer at his home in the Tampa Bay area of Florida on February 9, 2021, at age 79.
