When Herbie Hancock learned he was one of the five artists to be honored this year by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the surprise, he said, brought him to the verge of tears. "And that doesn't happen to me very often."
"To think that they would put me on the list with people I have loved and respected for so many years, it's shocking," said Mr. Hancock, a 73-year-old master jazz pianist who has won 14 Grammys and an Oscar. "It was like a dream, hard to believe and humbling."
