Chick Corea — Piano Improvisations Vol. 1

ECM Luminessence Series LP

Influential 1971 jazz solo piano album masterpiece!

“I found it quite easy to select what I felt was the single best disc (of 1971). Chick Corea’s Piano Improvisations Volume One is a true masterpiece of music and a very important album.” — Michael Cuscuna, Record World.

Luminessence, ECM’s audiophile vinyl reissue series, is a kaleidoscope, shedding light on the jewels of the label’s deep catalog in elegant, high-quality editions. The hallmarks of the series: original and evocative music, imaginatively played and sensitively produced. The recordings underline the scope and variety of ECM’s world of sound and the LPs are presented in different formats.

The series features albums that have changed perceptions of creative music-making, albums now heralded as classics.

Chick Corea’s first unaccompanied album initiated the solo piano idiom at ECM, and proved to be extremely influential. Alongside music created in the moment, some powerful melodies are explored here, not least that of “Sometime Ago,” soon to be a theme song for the Return to Forever band.
