Within the first ninety seconds of playing, Keith lays down more subtle, thick, rich harmony than any good piano player could master in a year's time. His harmony, tone and sound are so elegant and polished, yet very slippery...very elusive...not easy to duplicate. Even pianists who laboriously transcribe his solos note-for-note can't easily imitate him, because his piano playing is more than just the notes. It's the way he plays those notes that is so difficult to copy. Those of us who have been trying to steal from him for many years have little to show for our efforts. One shouldn't expect to be able to carve great statues just because he has stolen a sculptor's chisels.
You can see how much he loves the Jazz, And the singing is because he tries to play what he hears in hes head, and its better when u sing it with ur mouth. Just remember That this is a legend in Music and Jazz especially. I love Keith Jarret, and may his Music and soloes be played forever.
Expansive, imaginative, and unfolding in ever changing colors. He carves out space and pulls everything together seamlessly, stating every melodic line with consummate grace. A rare gem of a musician. An inspiration to watch.
it's impossible what happening to me because of this video!!i'm watchin it every day for 2 years and i still addicted !!!he's a god of music !!love u keith :)
OK, all I can say is that I've heard this 5 times in a row and I'm not tiring of it...actually, I doubt I ever would be. And each time, I've heard 'another' new thing. Keith Jarrett - God blessed you long before you left the womb!
Jarrett is UNBELIEVABLE! To be able to SEE & HEAR HIM IS AWESOME! The Beethovan, Mozart & Bach of his time! He keeps getting better and better. Awesome muscians all of them. Thanks Keith!
Absolutely! All three are ECM alumni! What a label it was back in the 1970's! (Gary Burton, John Abercrombie, Ralph Towner, Dave Holland... the list goes on and on. How incredible that it happened!
Keith is ne of the best jazz pianists there are.....sometimes, his music is from out of this world....sometimes he gives me goes pimps.... yeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh holy cow, jesus, grey rat... whathever, he's given me some great times....
Ah this is jamming like no other, he has the soul to produce this like he always does......he don't need any ones okay, he is in the class with all the other greats....thank you
Keith is a real key talent. He's definitively a key-pianist. It's incredible how the piano is just the extension of his mind and how he can dance while playing. I'm completly amazed of his inventions from this well-known standard. A great moment of art.
who cares for what Jarrett wears, when you listen to this type of music you dont realy care for what he is wearing but what he is playing on the piano! Keith Jarrett he is great musician and he always be, the rest of all this i read and the dislike comments they just amusing me, seriusly if you dont understaint this music not listen it , !!!
What you said, man. You nailed it. They all have the ability to let it go at any time, and always be there together. Keith's phrasing is so amazing, he's writing tunes as he goes. Not one misplaced note.
Man that line at 5:55 is so perfect in every way. comping, timing, articulation and dynamics. there're so few if any pianists at all that can approach every single note with attention to all these details in an improv!
@jamesmustafamusic Beautifully put to the 'non musical' brigade......my father brought me up playing Garner.....someone else these people will never have heard of...so well said James
The run at 4:24 is one of the reasons why, as a pianist, it is simultaneously inspiring yet discouraging to listen to Keith play. Every note was crystal clear, the phrasing was perfect - and it's entirely improvised. Absolutely unbelievable, but then again this is Keith we're talking about...
well it is been on the tubes since 2005 and it's titled simply Autumn Leaves so when people search for this immensely popular tune many of them end up here, oh and it's an amazing video too :)
keith jarret has singlehandedly (actually with both hands) revitalized the jazz standard. nobody, nobody has ever interpreted standards like jarret's trio. his unique use of melody,rhythm and harmony are refreshing innovations on a tried and true form. it is to his great credit considering how many different ways these songs have been played over the years. jarret's brilliance on these standards is simply unmatched. the warmth and soul are guiding lights for the listening musician.
The thing that kills me is his comping with the left hand. The timing, the voicings, the freedom. Each chorus sounds like a new progression of chords, yet all related to the core document of the song. Each chorus of his solo phrases uniquely through the progressions. Very subtle and exciting at the same time.
On my favorite recordings by Oscar Peterson and Bud Powell, their involuntary yelps are audible too. It does not disturb my enjoyment of the music, nor gratitude for the people who achieve the level of passion to make it possible. People complaining about noises like that are entitled to their opinion, but they also are entitled to being called out on demanding to be spoon-fed entertainment without offering any understanding of the transaction. Plenty out there who will oblige y'all...
At 1:20, with the descending chords and the following phrase I get the feeling everything openes up for Keith in that moment. The contour, the form of solo materialised in his mind as a whole. Then he played it. Then I listened. It feels like he re-discoveres everything as he plays it. His mind must be totally empty as he enters stage to get into that liberating mode of curiosity and discovery. I dont know this, but I think it might work something like that. Best, Sandemose
After a partuese and a french, a belgian (it's me :D ) AMAZING ! I have listen his guitar and saxophone records and he is juste amazing, wathever the instrument !
Transcribe, listen, improvise, practice technique, play to a metronome, create your own style, be proud of it. You can do it. Keith Jarrett was at your level at some point in his life but he had the dedication and attitude to rise to higher levels.
Pop music strikes the brain in pleasurable ways that even the most HC sub-sub genre aficionado cannot innately ignore. But like anything taken to a 'higher level,' jazz requires more thought and energy to understand and enjoy, which is something some folks choose to do because they find greater value in its delayed gratification. But I still listen to MJ or many other pop artists and am still 'cheaply,' but happily, satisfied. All depends on the mood! :D
Here's my contibution to your list from a jazz singer... Blue Skies ( Cole Porter) All Or Nothing At All 'Round Midnight (Thelonius Monk) Body And Soul ( Duke Ellington ) In a Sentimental Mood ( Ellington/Strayhorn) Daydream Someone To Watch Over Me So many great songs...they all make me cry when I hear them or I sing them.
this is freakin' awesome...of course there is someone singing - Keith Jarrett used to vocalise most of solos - it actually gives more precision and purposefulness to the solo itself rather than just a random scale progressions. If you get hold of his standards live concert, it's even more obvious in that... thanks for posting this magic
We tolerate the man's quirks and sub-vocalizations in order to bear witness to his genius. And it's on full display every time he sits down at a keyboard.
I think Keith Jarret is the best vocalist of our generation
Yes, since Glenn Gould is dead, one can say so.
Pretty stupid comment considering the depth of this music.
grow up!

jennifer86010 well pointed!
How can someone dislike REAL MUSIC !!!!, great musicians !!!
You can see how much he loves the Jazz,
And the singing is because he tries to play what he hears in hes head, and its better when u sing it with ur mouth.
Just remember That this is a legend in Music and Jazz especially.
I love Keith Jarret, and may his Music and soloes be played forever.
keith jarrett is the best jazzmusician of all times and he lives. it's a miracle.
Expansive, imaginative, and unfolding in ever changing colors. He carves out space and pulls everything together seamlessly, stating every melodic line with consummate grace. A rare gem of a musician. An inspiration to watch.
I could listen to this trio and no other group for the rest of my life and be content.
it's impossible what happening to me because of this video!!i'm watchin it every day for 2 years and i still addicted !!!he's a god of music !!love u keith :)
OK, all I can say is that I've heard this 5 times in a row and I'm not tiring of it...actually, I doubt I ever would be. And each time, I've heard 'another' new thing. Keith Jarrett - God blessed you long before you left the womb!
how can anyone dislike awesome true music? Be it classical, jazz, rock, heavy metal, blues, r&b, country. Music is one family man! A gift from God!
truly organic complicity from this trio of outstanding vets; and Jack DeJ: always subtle, always dynamic.
Jarrett is UNBELIEVABLE! To be able to SEE & HEAR HIM IS AWESOME! The Beethovan, Mozart & Bach of his time! He keeps getting better and better. Awesome muscians all of them. Thanks Keith!

Many thank for share this wonderful video 🎼❤
Ah this is jamming like no other, he has the soul to produce this like he always does......he don't need any ones okay, he is in the class with all the other greats....thank you
Keith is without a doubt in his very own class. He is such a joy to hear/watch play. Totally pheonominal!
Keith is a real key talent. He's definitively a key-pianist.
It's incredible how the piano is just the extension of his mind and how he can dance while playing.
I'm completly amazed of his inventions from this well-known standard.
A great moment of art.
By far the best trio interpretation of "autumn leaves" I know ... especially the way he plays C#min/F# instead of the usual chords .. amazing
Ho yes love that. Jazz ok French song. Too. Cool xx merci. Olivier. Xxx
How can anyone NOT like this. Absolutely the best piano player ever. Amazing!!!
Giants! It so so great that they kept Bill Evans trio concept alive and took it to the outer limits. Jack is on fire like always! What a pleasure!
III LOOOOOVE MR KEITH JARRETT AND HIS TRIOOOO!!! Very souly melodies he play! 5/5!!!!
who cares for what Jarrett wears, when you listen to this type of music you dont realy care for what he is wearing but what he is playing on the piano! Keith Jarrett he is great musician and he always be, the rest of all this i read and the dislike comments they just amusing me, seriusly if you dont understaint this music not listen it , !!!
This is the best jazz listening for this wonderful song.
This is simply the best working trio on earth today.
I've heard him live and that was my second biggest experience in my life!!!! :)
(The first was Kurt Rosenwinkel!
This two musicians are incredible!)
What you said, man. You nailed it. They all have the ability to let it go at any time, and always be there together. Keith's phrasing is so amazing, he's writing tunes as he goes. Not one misplaced note.
omfg keith jarret u're definitely born to be the prophet of jazz musicians!!
Man that line at 5:55 is so perfect in every way. comping, timing, articulation and dynamics. there're so few if any pianists at all that can approach every single note with attention to all these details in an improv!
@jamesmustafamusic Beautifully put to the 'non musical' brigade......my father brought me up playing Garner.....someone else these people will never have heard of...so well said James
It's Keith Jarret?... What else?...
The way he plays is just brilliant!...
What a wonderful pianist...
Wow.. With passion in every single note. Incredibly beautiful!

They are all really getting into the groove... It's like they are surfing the tune :) great stuff!
outstanding. such feel in his playing. don't get much better than mr. jarrett.
this is the ever best version of autumn leaves, listen to that amazing solo!!!!
Wow, not heard this for a few years. What a great performance. Loving the Kurt Weill quote at the end too
God, his line playing always blows me away. No one else plays lines on the piano like this.
The run at 4:24 is one of the reasons why, as a pianist, it is simultaneously inspiring yet discouraging to listen to Keith play. Every note was crystal clear, the phrasing was perfect - and it's entirely improvised. Absolutely unbelievable, but then again this is Keith we're talking about...
Una de mis favoritas desde la primera vez que la escuche...
The emotion in this performance (from the entire group) is amazing.
OMG...this guy....is amazing! My ears have never heard anything like that out of a piano before....
well it is been on the tubes since 2005 and it's titled simply Autumn Leaves so when people search for this immensely popular tune many of them end up here, oh and it's an amazing video too :)
Beautiful, just beautiful!!!
A világ talán egyik legjobb trio-ja...Fantasztikus!!!
Keith Jarrett SMASHED!! I love this version of Autumn Leaves!

The greatest standard performed by the greatest master..
1 word the keith jarret trio rules i simply love jazz
Such a distinctive piano sound Keith has
Nobody does it better! Brilliant!
such of emotional and sensitive performance...thank you
Nice deed for the fantasie of melody ! It's fantastic to create such !
keith jarret has singlehandedly (actually with both hands) revitalized the jazz standard. nobody, nobody has ever interpreted standards like jarret's trio. his unique use of melody,rhythm and harmony are refreshing innovations on a tried and true form. it is to his great credit considering how many different ways these songs have been played over the years. jarret's brilliance on these standards is simply unmatched. the warmth and soul are guiding lights for the listening musician.
Don't forget that he is not alone!!! Amazing bassist Gary Peacock and The genious drummer Jack DeJohnette
Jazz-stastic!!!! Great performance!!
LOVE ALL OF IT. LOVE THE LAST CHORD !
The thing that kills me is his comping with the left hand. The timing, the voicings, the freedom. Each chorus sounds like a new progression of chords, yet all related to the core document of the song. Each chorus of his solo phrases uniquely through the progressions. Very subtle and exciting at the same time.
man, he sounds like bill so much!!! But yes, this is one of the best solos and renditions of this song i've ever heard!!!
me encanta este tema. Es simplemente hermoso y mas si lo toca un Señor Maestro.........

One of myh favorite Improvs from him. Soooo many Sweet licks in there!!!!
There are some musicians that God himself speaks through. Keith Jarrett is one of them.
Good song- definately a jazz standard!! Good song to work with on guitar!!
Keith Jarrett is simply THE genius of improvisation.
Keith J is a legend. This guy is amazing! I like the way he gets up out the seat as he's playing....Nice! Not enough keys on the piano for Ketih!
wow
there was so much feeling
i loved it
ahhh I LOVE the fours with Jack and Keith, especially from aroun 6:32 till the tune again at 6:49....just amazing! Perfection.
An amazing performance here!!
No doubt - there are about 5 people living on Earth,who really knows how to play the jazz piano.He is one of us.
At 1:20, with the descending chords and the following phrase I get the feeling everything openes up for Keith in that moment. The contour, the form of solo materialised in his mind as a whole.

Best, Sandemose
excellent , un pur bonheur, du jazz à l'état pur , de l'impro ! musiciens hors pair ... et bien sur les feuilles mortes !
Keith--what can you say...AMAZING!!!

Omg. He is playing so nice! Very nice!
しみますねぇ、これ。
住んでる所は未だ夏まっさかりですが
これ聞くと秋が待ち遠しくなりますね。
Gary Peacock is an awesome bassist. That is one of the nicest versions of Autumn Leaves I've ever heard.
Full of Envy and Love!

After a partuese and a french, a belgian (it's me :D )
AMAZING !
I have listen his guitar and saxophone records and he is juste amazing, wathever the instrument !
Yep I couldn't agree more. You can really hear it 'take off' at that point hey :) Its fantastic.
Jazz in morning. Cool. Hahaha bravo xx
Transcribe, listen, improvise, practice technique, play to a metronome, create your own style, be proud of it. You can do it. Keith Jarrett was at your level at some point in his life but he had the dedication and attitude to rise to higher levels.
man, that dude, is into it, i love when they feel that groove much.
Great piano genius...
zarpadoooooo...................me encanta!!!

This is one of the Autumn solos that always comes to mind,
G A Bb
Eb F G
A Bb C
G Ab
Simple sequence, so beautiful...
Here's my contibution to your list from a jazz singer...
Blue Skies ( Cole Porter)
All Or Nothing At All
'Round Midnight (Thelonius Monk)
Body And Soul ( Duke Ellington )
In a Sentimental Mood ( Ellington/Strayhorn)
Daydream
Someone To Watch Over Me
So many great songs...they all make me cry when I hear them or I sing them.
Brilliant as ever!!
oh men,i love this video,is the best piece i never seen before ,!! , tnx fos post it !
this is freakin' awesome...of course there is someone singing - Keith Jarrett used to vocalise most of solos - it actually gives more precision and purposefulness to the solo itself rather than just a random scale progressions.

Keith Jarrett, k. (ur. 08.05.1945 r.) świętuje dzisiaj swoje urodziny, 100 lat i wszystkiego najlepszego drogi jubilacie !.
Aboslutely beautiful!
these guys are just awesome!
Speak Low at the end is genious. I'd love to get a piano lesson with Keith
