Herbert Jeffrey Hancock (born April 12, 1940) is a jazz pianist and composer from Chicago , Illinois , United States. Hancock is one of jazz music's most important and influential pianists and composers. He embraced elements of rock , funk , and soul while adopting freer stylistic elements from jazz. As part of Miles Davis ' "second great quintet" Hancock helped redefine the role of a jazz rhythm section, and was later one of the first jazz musicians to embrace synthesizers and jazz funk .
