Herbie Hancock
What an odd concert it was. Herbie Hancock was one of the special solo pianists. But they didn’t introduce him, or the orchestra, or the conductor. Nor did they mention what pieces they would be playing that evening. And if you’re looking for a program, forget it, they didn’t have any of those either. It’s like they didn’t know what they would be playing beforehand. But Hancock played a great third set, complete with fun jazz and everything. The classical parts of the concert were also decent and talented. It’s going to be interesting to see if they play this kind of concert again, or if it was just a one-shot deal. Check it out if you get the chance and are in London.
