Legendary American jazzmen Chick Corea and Gary Burton have been altering and moving the jazz forward world for some four decades.
Corea, 70, is a virtuoso jazz pianist. A member of the Miles Davis band in the ‘60s, he can be regarded as one of the pioneers of the electric jazz fusion movement.
Through his career, he was nominated for 51 Grammy Award, 15 of which he won. Burton, 68, is also a Grammy-winning jazzman and probably one of the best known vibraphonists in the world, a percussion instrument similar to the marimba.
These two musicians have long stopped counting the number of their albums, which has probably exceeded a hundred for both of them.
Thursday, Apr. 7, 7 p.m., Palats Ukraina, 103 Velyka Vasylkivska St., 247-2303, www.jazzinkiev.com. Tickets: Hr 70-1500.
