Herbie Hancock will embark on a North American tour this fall, with a trio of cities – Calgary (November 9), Portland (November 11) and Seattle (November 18) — featuring Hancock revisiting George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” in collaboration with their local symphony orchestras.

The tour marks the first time in Hancock’s career that he will be touring solo, incorporating elements of both his acoustic and electric musical heritage and culling material from throughout his legendary career.

Among Hancock’s many honors are an Academy Award for his Round Midnight film score and 14 Grammy Awards, including Album Of The Year for River: The Joni Letters, as well as two 2011 Grammy Awards for the recently released globally collaborative CD, The Imagine Project.
