据其家族发言人称，死因是癌症
Mr. Corea’s best-known band was Return to Forever, a collective with a
rotating membership that nudged the genre of fusion into greater contact with
Brazilian, Spanish and other global influences. It also provided Mr. Corea
with a palette on which to experiment with a growing arsenal of new
technologies.
Corea最为人知晓的乐队是Return to Forever，一个不断更迭乐手并扩展融合爵士与巴西
乃至西班牙音乐与其它世界音乐的影响。

piano, on which his punctilious touch and crisp sense of harmony made his
playing immediately distinctive.
