Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Global Swarming

For all he has accomplished over the course of a five-decade career — 14 Grammy awards, playing with Miles Davis, the Headhunters, etc. — Herbie Hancock has a new venture that might be his most impressive yet. Imagine Project is a cross-cultural film and music collaboration featuring iconic musicians from every corner of the globe. Taking inspiration from John Lennon’s classic, “Imagine,” Hancock offers a passionate meditation on peace, love and understanding in his native tongue: music. Saturday June 4, Hancock appears at the Flynn MainStage as a headlining performer for the 2011 Burlington Discover Jazz Festival.
