McCoy Tyner and Bill Frisell

McCoy Tyner  Quintet with Bill Frisell, Gary Bartz, John Patitucci and Herlin Riley

McCoy Tyner has always expanded his vision of the musical landscape and incorporated new elements, whether from distant continents or diverse musical influences. More recently he has arranged for big bands, employed string arrangements, and even reinterpreted popular music. Recently Tyner has been touring with Bill Frisell in the wake of his 2008 recording “Guitars” on which he played with 5 different guitarists: Bill Frisell, Derek Trucks, Bela Fleck, Bill Frisell, John Scofield, Marc Ribot, with Tyner’s trio mates, Ron Carter and Jack DeJohnette.
