American pianist, composer, and band leader McCoy Tyner was born on December 11, 1938 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He became a prominent figure in the jazz world with his innovative style and virtuosic piano playing. Tyner's career spanned over six decades, during which he collaborated with legendary musicians such as Kenny Dorham, Red Garland, and Sonny Clark. His contributions to the genre earned him critical acclaim and numerous accolades. Sadly, McCoy Tyner passed away on March 6, 2020.

Tyner's music is often compared to that of other influential artists like Bud Powell and Art Tatum. He was known for his powerful left-hand chords and unique approach to improvisation. As a member of the iconic group Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers, Tyner showcased his talent alongside fellow jazz greats including Joe Henderson and Freddie Hubbard.

The legacy of McCoy Tyner lives on through his extensive discography as a bandleader and sideman. His compositions continue to inspire aspiring musicians around the world. Whether performing solo or leading his own trio, Tyner's music remains an integral part of the jazz canon.

McCoy Tyner

The start of the new "Live At Fabrik Hamburg" series on Jazzline in cooperation with the legendary venue and NDR Kultur - is this previously unreleased concert from jazz greats Freddie Hubbard and McCoy Tyner from 1986.

It will be released as a double CD in a three-part digipak and as a triple LP in a triple gatefold cover that includes detailed Liner notes by Michael Laages. In the Altonaer Fabrik in 1986, the master trumpeter Freddie Hubbard was a guest in the trio of one of the most important pianists of contemporary jazz: McCoy Tyner, whose extremely powerful attack always added percussive power of the most energetic kind to his virtuoso playing. 

McCoy Tyner died in March 2020, the recording from 1986 (he was 58 years old at the time) show him at the height of the unmistakable jazz expression that defined him. His piano and the enormous radiance of the Hubbard trumpet (born in the same year as Tyner in 1938, but died in 2008) are the outstanding protagonists. But the recording also features bassist Avery Sharpe, born in 1954 and with excellent acoustic and electrical credentials, as well as Louis Hayes, still today the most indestructible of all modern drummers at well over 80 years of age. Together they refine the nine titles of this two- hour concert on this truly remarkable evening of music!
