Chick Corea Adds Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, Brad Mehldau & More to Blue Note Lineup

Final lineup additions have been announced for Chick Corea'sunprecedented two-month 75th Birthday Celebration at The Blue Note, which runs October 19 through December 11, 2016.

Lineup additions to the 80-show engagement, which will feature Corea leading 15 legendarybands comprised of 60 musical friends from over half a century, include the following:

• Chick Corea Piano Duets: November 18-20
  w/ Brad Mehldau (November 18)
  w/ Herbie Hancock (November 19)
  w/ Gonzalo Rubalcaba (November 20)

• Chick Corea & John McLaughlin Duet: December 7

Tickets are now available to the general public and can be purchased at www.bluenotejazz.com or call 212-475-8592.

Additionally, genre-defying multi-instrumentalist and producer Taylor McFerrin and firebrand Cuban saxophonist Yosvany Terry have been added to the "Experiments in Electronica" project (November 9-10), in which Corea debuts his new, next-level take on electronica with drummer Marcus Gilmore.

Corea's first Blue Note birthday run, marking his 60th anniversary in the fall of 2001, was a cathartic two-week engagement for a city just beginning to heal following the 9/11 attacks. The run produced the GRAMMY®-winning album Rendezvous in New York. In November 2011, he returned to The Blue Note with a month-long 70th birthday residency featuring countless artistic giants. This year's 75th birthday celebration marks his most ambitious Blue Note residency ever.

Chick Corea's 75th Birthday Celebration will feature two shows nightly, at 8pm and 10:30pm.
