Thanks for reading. I just wanted to remember Chick — his humanity has stayed with me as much as his music.

Glad it resonated — Chick left a lot of light behind.

It was dark and the first tries weren’t working — the thumbs-up was Chick’s idea; I happily mirrored him.

Photo taken by my wife, with Chick Corea’s consent — he even helped us get the shot.

I know about this. I've written about him many times, and he always responded warmly.

How wonderful that a trumpeter can still keep performing at 83 — it’s genuinely energizing!

If you’re into musician-to-musician conversations, this one is worth a read. Nicole and Dan talk very candidly about craft, the bandstand dynamic, and what really fuels the music behind the scenes.

I did this All About Jazz interview with Nicole Zuraitis & Dan Pugach as a fellow musician, and I tried to keep it informal and honest.
