Grammy winner jazz musician Chick Corea to perform Sept. 20 in Porsdam

Posted

POTSDAM -- Twenty-time Grammy award-winning jazz keyboardist and composer Chick Corea will perform at SUNY Potsdam's Hosmer Hall on Sept. 20.

He will be backed by the band The Vigil. They include saxophonist/clarinetist/flutist Tim Garland, guitarist Charles Altura, bassist Hadrien Feraud, drummer Marcus Gilmore, percussionist Pernell Saturnino and Corea’s wife, vocalist Gayle Moran Corea.

Tickets for the 7:30 p.m. show range from $15 to $50 and can be purchased from https://itkt.choicecrm.net/templates/POTS/ .

“I get the greatest pleasure out of seeing people happy and enjoying life,” Corea said in a prepared statement. “When all are smiling at the end of a performance – musicians, audiences, crew, organizers and all – I then feel like I’ve done my job well, and I’m inspired to create more music and communicate even more broadly. This is my greatest pay for all the effort at work. This is what makes being a musician such a joy. This is what inspires me to maintain the vigil.”
