@wellsounds The composers are Harry Warren and Mack Gordon. The version of the Bill Evans Trio (with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian) is definitely the ONE. (>>>> Explorations, riverside, 1961)
@ausrotten9 He has an income that can support the maintenance on his body. Besides he's already broken down once before and since then doesn't play too often per year.
It is incredibly difficult to understand how he can maintain perfect control over technique, sound and everything despite his posture(s). But that just shows how involved he is. It's at least 120%; that's what it takes.
The purity of Keith is always the bitter sweet of life his tones leave me with tears because they touch parts of my soul that hurt but in-lighted me to feel the strength in just the simplicity of a Trio
Can someone point me to a Jarret piece where he uses space effectively. I just hear wall to wall notes, same as Coltrane. The Koln thing to me sounds like a monkey let loose on a keyboard - all brilliantly executed of course, but, to my feeble understanding, people like Thelonius Monk or Art Tatum are doing much more interesting things whereas Jarret reaches a kind of monotony that doesn't move me at all. Upsetting to you fans, but perhaps you could explain.
@jazzflutist also the stella from yesterdays. or any of his recordings. im not sure if youre looking for some sort of beat someone over the head bullshit, but he is the master of that
@jazzflutist .. Nobody can share a tooth pain... So if you need an explanation of a sunrise or an eclipse.. probably you are blocked in your deepest sensibility... The music, as the same as all Beaux Arts, can't be explained.. just can be tasted, lived and the body or mind can enjoy and feel the essence, but not explained...
@jazzflutist jazzflutist, I hear him using a lot of space, especially in his presentation of the melody. Can you record yourself playing a standard, so that we can hear you demonstrate an effective use of space?
Most people who criticize the masters probably couldn't get through a tune list of 10 tunes or more...please enlighten us with some playing of your own.
@jazzflutist you have to be a pianist to appreciate the immense talent of KJ. He improvises like no-one else which is maybe that few understand how brilliant he is
@dailymocha true, only a lifer, one who has dedicated his/her entire life to piano can KNOW how amazing Keith really is. Mortals have no Idea what they say or hear sometimes, and this is the closest to eternity one will ever experience!
henry warren in 1945...lyrics by Mack Gordon, great tune...one of my favorite. check out chet baker doing it, and trane's version on his ballads album
@yukitihige You know, I had the same question but I could not find Information, but there are earlier recordings of it on youtube by diffenrent musicians, so I suppose, it is a standard... Maybe it was Monk? =)
One curious thing about Keith,is that he NEVER repeats himself, his music is always fresh and on the spot, not from a bag of collected licks.. As pianists go,.he is definitely..in my opinon THE MAN !!!
True, you cannot find the same lick two times in a whole album, and this thing is quite... frightening... It's hard even to think reaching a genius like him. But in my opinion every musician should take example from his total and so intense involvement of mind, body and soul in one great creative efford, that leads to that music, PURE music. Every one can do this, and the degree you reach depends fundamentally on HOW INTENSELY YOU WANT to reach an artistic target..
Another thing is that within his chords he can make one,two, or more notes come out while other notes are very soft, like a painter who has some colors bright, while others are muted.Bill Evans had this ability. It is extreemly hard to do,especially with this kinf of control.Also there is his sparkling tone and peddaling.....amazing !
Jeeze, Jarrett not only "inhabits," but he travels through, unravels and takes his listeners along on the journey of a song that you never realized was there to be explored in the first place...he's never less than profound. It's a gift to be alive while he's creating music!
Playing and listening to so much music almost all the time, from classical,baroque,brazilian,jazz including Evans,BradMehldau,Corea,Hancock,ambient,progressive rock,etc.. Everytime I go back to Jarrett I feel he is an inch ahead of everyone in regards to depth of expression. But it is a monumental inch! This is just my own perception. Don't mean to pronouce the truth here!
@guscaldas2 You don't have to in words. Let the spiritual realm of music inform to all: Keith is 'the best', and exception to all the rules we understand about music and the source of what we've yet to discover or not of it.
A whole different universe.

How has he had a career with that technique? It is so tense, so deformed, to contorted. I would be injured in a week, playing like that.

Does anyone know who composed this lovely song?
Is this a original song by Mr. Keith Jarret himself?
Anyway, his expression with this is so wonderful.

It may seem like only two or three years ago that I watched this performance at Hitomi memorial hall in Showa women's university.
I love standard numbers played by this unit--any kind of it, so far as that goes.

Like an actor who inhabits his role, Keith inhabits a song. He is something really special.
