“Only play what you hear. If you don’t hear anything, don’t play anything.”
– Chick Corea

One thing he has focused on is to deliver a very high musical quality. Some people like his playing and others may think he is to technical. I leave that to you to decide. For me he is a great musician. The examples below gives you a brief view of his playing.
