Bobby McFerrin & Chick Corea - Spain - LIVE HD 

To everyone...you don't need to know what he's saying. This man is clearly showing that the voice is an instrument first and foremost and that it can be transformed into anything you want. He's immitating basslines masterfully, singing in violin ranges, creating natural effects that give off an ethereal vibe, all while chanting. Normally people need a whole ensemble to do half the things he's doing. Chick Corea is already a freak of nature but, Bobby McFerrin is also a legend. Don't try and label his talent or try to approach it like some science project. Don't call it 'noise'. Just appreciate great music.

Look at Chick smile and look at McFerrin knowing he is one of the best rhythm sections he has ever played with.

Back when I first moved to LA I used to work for Chick and Gayle Corea at their home in Hollywood. I was their Estate manager. I ran the house and grounds for them. At that time I had a backstage pass to any show he played anywhere. I utilized this when ever I could! An an amazing performer and an sweet guy. I did catch a show of Bobby and him at a small theater in Hollywood. What a show. Most of the audience were singers and gladly sang along when Bobby asked. I'd never been in an audience of that many great singers! They all sang on key and followed Bobby's directions like they were in his chorus. A sweet memory I'll never forget

I watch one Bobby McFerrin video each day. It furthers my musical education. He NEVER gets old. I love this video because they are really listening to each other, taking each other to places in this piece where the other has maybe never gone before, which is the goal of improvisation--to make something new. Very exciting. Super satisfying. Just great stuff.

Rest in Paradise sir. Your music made planet earth a better place.

First time I ever heard a version of this number that I liked even better than the original Seventies recording. Going so stripped down really allowed Corea to pull out all these different expressions his fertile mind could pull from the melody and structure. Most especially, I love the absolute restraint he used. Fewer notes, more music. And he hardly repeated anything! He kept showing different ways to speak the music. Just amazing, amazing, amazing and utterly joyful to listen to. And, oh, Mr. McFerrin wasn't half bad either.

Anytime I listen to Mr. McFerrin, it is a true magical ride. All you have to do is close your eyes, open your ears, and follow the sound.

I am so thankful I have lived long enough to see this.

This is pure brilliance in action

Chick never got old. His youthful energy and musical wonder lasted his entire lifetime. Thank you Chick for all the incredible music and the many hours of insightful teaching you put out there into the universe. You will be missed but never forgotten.

R.I.P. Chick 😭❤️

Can't stop staring at these guys. My heart's beating like a jungle drum..!

Bobby McFerrin's voice an instrument on it's own

I got chills, tears in my eyes - astounding. What an honor to witness Chick Corea and Bobby McFerrin do a completely unique take on my favorite Chick Corea song ever. 'Spain' will always lift my soul to another level. Gorgeous. These two were a two man orchestra - what fun they had riffing off each other! 💗

Holy shit. This is so perfect....

Tout cela est magnifique ! Merci Jean-Pierre Zirn /La Seine TV

Удивительные , и очень любимые мною Люди. Восторг и уважение!

Thank you Bobby and Chick!! You are №1

I really love this treatment of this extremely well-known piece, and the delicacy of it, which makes the listener reconsider it, or at least look at it from a very different angle. Spectacular.

OMG how on earth did he hit that last note?? its a LOW B

Best thing on RU-vid!!! By far

7:11 As their legs tap to match the rhythm. That's justice right there.

Mind. Blown.

“Spain” cobra en esta versión una frescura admirable. La melodía de Rodrigo renace de los clichés y así, mestiza y desenfadada, nos aparece como una hermana que regresó de un largo viaje remozada. Si Chick Corea nos había ofrecido una adaptación conmovedora, “El concierto de Aranjuez” en la voz de McFerrin se vuelve de su siglo gracias a un negro americano. ¡Una gozada! No ceso de disfrutar de este atrevimiento musical. El juego es fuente de creatividad y deleite.

Masters. Beautiful. Goosebumps.

En revoir à ce grand artiste de jazz Mr chick corea

Não existe.. altíssimo nível.. Isto é piada .. é a qualidade maior .. É o zen .. é realmente de outra dimensão

master is still alive with his music.

Hermosooooooooooo!!!!!!!sin palabras!!!!!!!

Having seen Chick several times live, I consider myself fortunate; for every time I not only felt a sense of being in the presence of true human genius, but also of time and space folding under his magic compositions and sense of harmony. Meeting him once backstage at Massey Hall I almost barfed and died. I get chills knowing now he is on a higher plane.

Révelation pour moi, il y a au moins huit ans!J'adore la voix,sous toutes ses formes et surtout le scat et là surprise,l 'homme n 'est pas qu'un phènomène vocal,c 'est un super musicien!Il improvise comme un sax!Et,y a qu'a voir l 'admiration de Coréa pour son partenaire de jeu!Quand la musique amène à cette jubilation,je suis preneur!

Isn't it amazing when people use their God given talents? Such harmony and beauty are created!! Brilliant!

I can't love this video enough.

Rip Chick a jazz fusion legend

Can't believe I've just discovered this video. Bobby's Brain is wired for music, he is an absolute musician. I just admire him more every chance I get to admire his talent.

Brilliant !!!!!

Extraordinary fortunate are those who attended this concert. These two were friends for years and had a fun plan to play Vegas as appropriately decked out lounge duo. Alas, with Chick’s passing that will never happen. Story told by Bobby at Chick’s online memorial.

RIP to the legend chick corea!!!

genio, iluminado...

Si Chick Corea y Bobby McFerrin iban a compartir escenario, era de cajón, el que brindarían al público una versión muy particular de 'Spain'. La composición de Chick más conocida, por la que será más recordado por el público... Y es que este inicio de Spain, con la cita de Chick de 'Concierto de Aranjuez' de Joaquín Rodrigo, y que es el inicio de Spain, ya se escuchó demasiado hermosa... Chick fue pianista/tecladista muy orientado al mundo latino... Tuvo clásicos en estilo latin cubano como Guajira o Armando's Rhumba ... En estilo latin brasileño como You're Everything o 500 Miles High... Pero su corazón tendía más hacia la música española. Uno de sus discos más famosos lleva el título de 'My Spanish Heart'. Fue justicia de la Vida que su canción más querida sea Spain❤️ 🎹🎹💃🎶🎶🎶🌻

Es mi favorito "Concierto de Aranjuez!

I can never get over how Versatile Bobby's voice is. It's kind of stupid how good he is. And of course Chick is Chick. I'll always simp.

rip in peace, you amazing human being and gift to the world...

I wish I'd been there ... Must go this year

Two monsters of the musical world!
