Chick Corea and Cory Henry Improvising

Amazing artists. So glad we got to see those guys display their gifts for a small group of us in NYC. #chickcorea #coryhenry

[@220nextlevelsound]

The moment you realize that the biggest most important things in life happens without notice, how could this not be a headline event 😥 RIP Chick Corea, Long live Cory Henry...

[@kingjaysteve3376]

This is a moment for a lifetime

[@aaronturley3587]

Facts!

[@sean8190]

Without a moments notice...

[@Rhythmicons]

I'm so happy that he got to meet Chick. It's obvious how much of an influence he was on Cory's playing. I wish my father were alive to see this.

[@marcosfischer_]

The image of him seeing that already shows how meaningful that is.

[@MetalheadNation]

When Corey comes in at 2:50 I get chills. The most beautiful and haunting chords I’ve ever heard, and I can’t believe it’s improvised

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Well, you need to listen to a lot of Chick Corea. Experiment listening to "Chick Corea and Steve Kujala album" or "Piano improvisations vol 1", or Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock albums. These are excellent, but all chick's albuns are real treasures. 🎉❤

[@alyman1]

NEVER delete this!!!

[@Rhythmicons]

This should have gone on for hours and hours. Please promise to never delete this ever.

[@AKOutback]

If Cory Henry keeps his eye on the prize, he could possibly go down as one of the best of all time.

[@zenkii2763]

easily bruh!

[@markprater1]

Wow...passing the Torch right before our eyes. RIP Chick. Corey's yet to write on Chick's level, but as a keyboard player, he's right there...

[@nicovilches8225]

Fully agree

[@brandonwilliams966]

Creating music that stands the test of time is how Cory's name will REALLY go down in history. Amazing pianist nonetheless.

[@marvinkmooneyoz]

for agile fingers, i think he's basically as good, maybe a little bit more flexible, and has a bigger vocabulary in terms of gospel and neosoul. Chick has him for "modern classical" vocab, and that more pure prog sound.

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Cory is just mimicking Chick Corea chords and progressions from other tunes. I can hear Chick playing through him. He heard Corea a lot and assimilated his language. That's great. That's the way. On the shoulders of a giant. 🎉❤❤❤

[@ccal2284]

I'm sure that piano died happy that night...

[@mikeodgren]

Oh my gosh…the ears on these guys. How? How do they listen (and understand) this well? True masters.

[@dwightpartlow6923]

Saw Chick with 'Return To Forever'. Greatest concert of my life ! Easily. Chick, Al De Meola, Stanley Clark, and Lenny White. I still get exited talking about it 45 years later. The standing ovation didn't stop until they agreed to play an Oncor. Lenny White soloed on the drums for half an hour. Clark played every inch of the bass, and Chick was like a mad scientist. Greatness !

[@castroleiro]

Nothing but tears. This is so powerful on multiple levels.

[@shirazbopp]

Agree!

[@Power-9Hunnid]

RIP Chick Corea. Glad Cory got to play with him before he past.

[@CarlDoesMusic]

Maybe the 2 greatest pianists I would trust in a fight to save humanity on keys.

[@JayTheLane]

Chick was greatness and saw greatness in Cory.

[@steveraschella8233]

These are my 2 very favorite keyboardists...and there they are together...priceless!

[@jfs70ss]

I had two before Cory. Chick and Lyle Mays. Both are legends in their own right. RIP Lyle and Chick.

[@semilogosonaike5145]

I came on KZbin and this is the first thing I saw. The 🐐 algorithm strikes again

[@worrellrobinson4332]

Great artists have great feelings and passion for their art blessings to the ART!...

[@totallyfake2852]

I've always been wanting to hear these two play together. All these years, I assumed that it somehow never happened. But apparently, it did. If anybody knows of any more recordings of them playing together, please please please, share it and let me know.

[@justpg623]

4:38 it’s crazy how they were able to perfectly time the bass and treble clef to sync like that. Geniuses

[@notmwamwa]

this is truly the most ambitious crossover ever, dont you think?

[@MarcBosserman]

So amazing to hear the personalities come out on the different creations! : )

[@rowill2968]

How lucky you were to sit there in that room! Historical recording indeed. I wish we could have some more of Chick Corea and Cory Henry together.

[@esauponce9759]

Wonderful!

[@jamesratner7889]

Cory has some amazing ear.

[@jenniferv]

Thank God someone was nerdy enough with their phone to record this! Thank you @Jdogbigeye !!!! Soooo glad you did.

[@MrDWoods]

If you’d just close your eyes, it’s hard to tell when one stops & the other starts… influence is great here !

[@alexanderant11]

Two greats

[@Incognito-vc9wj]

What an amazing opportunity for Corey. Chic is God tier, and Corey will soon be as well.

[@dkeys1212]

Who in there right mind would give this a thumbs down. This is history before our eyes. I am in awe of the talent God has placed in these guys

[@VXReef]

Holy shit! That’s one of those experiences you’ll be talking about for the rest of your life. Actually the most incredible show I’ve ever seen was Return to forever.

[@clivelange7879]

wow...this is pure magic...man oh man

[@yotrakzproductions7324]

Sheesh! Thanks J

[@muzikman183]

I hope we are paying our musicians man.. please lets supports these kats when they show up.

[@SpecialystMusic]

Bruh! 😮 When Chick said that he and Cory both speak the same language, at that moment the torch was literally passed onto Cory! Lawd! RIP Chick Corea

[@PitchWheel]

This evening I thought.... what if Chick Corea and Cory Henry could ever collaborate together...? I wish it was happened, now it's too late... And.... WOW, here it is! It really happened! A miracle! You are so lucky!

[@anthonysmith8624]

This right here is musically monument. Chic Corea and Corey Henry.

[@rodriguestoni9247]

Chick peut être fier de toi de là-haut henry ! Amazing !

[@vitaliykuloyans]

[@perryguitar1]

Simply another level.... Throw Herbie H in there, too, and there would be bliss ;-)

[@rimbasumatra7181]

Great...

[@noodlessoul8356]

What a hidden gem

[@Deerych]

Corey H....bruh, YOU BETTER PLAY THAT DAMN PIANO. My GOODNESS! The spirit of Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson are within you! And Legend Chick Corea...sir we thank you for your musical service to humanity! Because of you...we can!

[@elleondejuda4681]

Is always a blessing to play with a Legend Cory is also a very bless talented musician. But chick, oh man, Chick Corea was a very out of this galaxy pianist a touch and a sound that only very few can reach in a life. Long live Chick!

[@andreph1719]

INSANE‼️ That’s it, that’s all‼️

[@rush2sk8]

Rip king

[@MatNewtonTrio]

🔥 ❤️

[@jr2k2rj]

Sad they couldn’t do a high level production together. Such is the Class of NYC, New Yorkers take them for granted, they don’t know how privileged they are to have legends live among them.

[@carpediem4179]

[@ntrakit6]

3:05-3:09 sounded like the piano was hiccuping with chords 🤣

[@mindlessman5233]

Rite of passage.

[@valentinmastikov3127]

Someone coming across this video without any context will probably think "what on earth is this?" They'd be right too, but would they appreciate it for what it is?

Why just 8 comments?

[@mikeblack1050]

This is what you get when 2 atoms collide!

[@fega1985]

Someone once said that cory is a chick on steroids. I don't agree tho, I feel it's a case of time and generation. Cory did not have the classical background chick had, so may not be able to operate in similar full capacity however, he will fill his own shoes and write he's own obviously exceedingly great history in the sands of time.

[@marvinkmooneyoz]

yeah, Cory doesnt quite get the 1900's modern classical sound, the way Chick often does. Bartok, Stravinsky, some Messiaen sometimes, You hear these in Chick. Cory gives us modern gospel sounds though that Chick just never really took to.
