Disc one is a globally inspired six-movement concerto for jazz quintet and chamber orchestra, depicting six continents. “Africa” is underscored midway through by a surging 12/8 groove from the rhythmically astute drummer Marcus Gilmore, while a handpicked chamber group plays contrapuntally against Corea’s authoritative piano. (The chamber ensemble, composed of members of the Harlem Quartet and Imani Winds, is conducted by Steven Mercurio, who conducted the London Symphony Orchestra on Corea’s 2000 collaboration with that organization.) Soprano saxophonist Tim Garland, trombonist Steve ...
