McCoy Tyner with Build An Ark

McCoy Tyner might have revolutionized jazz piano with his right hand tied behind his back. It was his explosively percussive left hand and rich harmonic chords that transcended conventional styles, starting from his first days in the John Coltrane Quartet. The master pianist performs here with his trio and special guest Gary Bartz. Opening the concert is the massive L.A.-based ensemble Build An Ark, whose soulful improvised music draws on the talents and influences of 20 musicians on stage.
