SUMMARY:Kauffman Center Presents
DESCRIPTION:Herbie Hancock \n\n\n\n\n\nNow in the seventh decade of his professional life\, Herbie Hancock remains where he has always been: at the forefront of world culture\, technology\, business and music. Herbie Hancock has been an integral part of every popular music movement since the 1960s. As a member of the Miles Davis Quintet that pioneered a groundbreaking sound in jazz\, he also developed new approaches on his own recordings\, followed by his work in the 70s — with record-breaking albums such as “Headhunters” — that combined electric jazz with funk and rock in an innovative style that continues to influence contemporary music.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	More from the VOICE
