| "The Imagine Project" is the next step in Hancock's extraordinary ground-breaking career, and builds upon his recent successes and recognition: 2007 Grammy for Album of the Year - "River/The Joni Letters"; Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World; multiple award-winning album - "Possibilities" amongst many others.
"Music truly is the universal language," says Hancock, "The Imagine Project" will explore that concept across the globe, uniting a myriad of cultures through song and positive creative expression. My hope is that the music will serve as a metaphor for the actions taken by the inhabitants of this wonderful planet as a call for world harmony on all levels." |
