It might not be obvious, but all of the tunes above were originally composed by Chick Corea – mostly as a young man. For this tour, various members of the JaLCO selected favorites to rearrange for big band performance.

Andrew Gilbert posted a very brief promo article about the gig for the Mercury News.

Took some digging, but it turns out that Wynton was absent tonight because he's working as a visiting scholar at Cornell this week.

It surprised me how many subs were called up tonight – a half dozen? – too bad that the program notes didn't get updated in time to reflect all of the changes!

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
