Solidifying the tour’s once-in-a-lifetime experience, Zappa Plays Zappa,

 the musical tribute to Frank Zappa, will join the bill alongside

“Return To Forever IV” (RTF IV), the legendary group’s fresh

 incarnation of core members Chick Corea (keys), Stanley Clarke (bass)

and Lenny White (drums), along with Mahavishnu Orchestra alum and

 violin virtuoso Jean-Luc Ponty as well as guitarist-extrodinaire

Frank Gambale.

Working together with complete creative compatibility and steeped

 in the tradition of extreme freedom of expression, these five pillars

of jazz and rock have prepared a must-see performance that will

please fans new and old. Their ever-evolving set-list encompasses

an amalgam of Return To Forever classics, highlights from each

member’s solo repertoire, and brand-new compositions written

for the RTF IV lineup.

“Since all the guys in the band are such good composers, I wanted

to have everyone’s compositions add to the new RTF IV vibe. So we

all agreed: let’s open it up — which is the way we like it, and I

think the way the fans like it too.” – Chick Corea

Zappa Plays Zappa was founded by Dweezil Zappa to bring the

music of his late father, Frank Zappa, to contemporary

audiences through a series of international performance tours

dubbed “Tour De Frank.” Dweezil’s fellow band members are

among the most brilliant and innovative players working in

any genre and, collectively, rise to the challenge of bringing

the legendary Zappa repertoire alive in concert. Dweezil Zappa,

a 2009 GRAMMY Award winner, continues to record and perform

on a regular basis around the world. 

Also in June, Chick celebrated his 70^th birthday (6/12) and Stanley

celebrated his 60^th birthday (6/30).
