Spell of Fusion

One is a jazz piano prodigy. One is a bluegrass banjo virtuoso. Together Chick Corea and Bela Fleck crafted The Enchantment, a master of art. The secret behind the success is the way the two musicians communicate through sounds. Cue into the end of “Joban Dna Nopia” (at 5:50 to be exact) for instance, you will hear how Corea makes his keyboard sounds like the banjo by playing at the high keys to perform in unison with Fleck, and then vice versa. Whether exchanging melodies, trading counterpoints, accompanying one another, or charging tempos against each other, the harmonization between the two is an unbreakable spell of fusion.
