I caught Keith only once live, 1973 at the Village Vanguard with Dewey Redman. I was sitting with a writer from the Village Voice who finagled his way back to the dressing room on the break. In the interview Jarrett commented that he only played now for his audience, that he had "transcended" music, but felt he would continue on for his audience. In other words, he "was" music. In all the years since, I've never questioned his word. He's doing it for us.
Tremendously powerful and beautiful. it has the weight of a glacier moving slowly through itself and intimately profound. Very quiet, unassuming, rich and interesting. The artistry is marvelous.
In response to your comment about the Keith Jarrett Trio in their 1993 concert in Tokyo...the tune "I Thought About You".....I too, miss them very much, however, as a jazz pianist who met them all and attended many of their concerts, I discovered that I actually enjoyed listening to them more on recordings than in live performance. I first learned of the advantage of studio recordings over listening in live performances, when the late film director Alfred Hitchcock said in an interview how he hated to shoot on outdoor locations, because he couldn't control all the unwanted noises and the problems with sunlight. One very big reason the Keith Jarrett Trio sounds good on recordings is the fact that the sound of the recordings, whether made in-studio or captured professionally in live concerts, is always great quality. As someone who has recorded many jazz trios over the years, I learned early on that listening with the naked ear was never as rich as a recording, since ambient noises, echo, and poor placement in a room or hall decreased the sound quality. Good mic placement and good mixing eliminated most of the problems. Fortunately, we have these great videos, which, for the most part, were recorded professionally, using good micing techniques and good mixing. We also have all the ECM recordings that that Keith has done over the years, with this trio as well as his earlier recordings. There may never be another Keith Jarrett Trio, but there will always be the Keith Jarrett Trio recordings, and those will remain immortal.
No doubt about it, it's a beautiful interpretation. We jazz lovers know and understand all this; what would it take for others to love this music as much as we do? That is the question!
+John Rasmussen In my own case, I learned to appreciate jazz because I took piano lessons and trumpet lessons as a youngster. When a person has played an instrument and learns how difficult it is to really master that instrument, that person respects jazz musicians, who are not only capable of playing the notes but improvising on those notes. May God bless them all!
+rwkenyon That's true of me too. And I still play, more than ever. :) But there are many non-musicians who appreciate the art of jazz. Perhaps some of them might tell us how they came to appreciate it?
Prodigioso Keith Jarrett y su excelente trío junto a otros virtuosos Peackot y De Johnette. El estado puro del jazz. De los mejores tríos en la historia del jazz.
Keith is playing very well. A visually entertaining way of playing but Jack DeJohnette the drummer is irritating me a bit, using drumstick onto the cymbal this way instead for smooth brushes. Drum brushes are usually played in ballads, jazz, and other softer songs; however they have many uses ...
Oh so gorgeous. But I venture to say I don't think Gary Peacock swallows half as much as Steve Swallow does He always Looks like he wants to swallow-but what do you Do? Bring him a Lozemge? .. But i play drums and actually don't even Go there. It sure is nice though. If people, one fine day, come lookin' for ya' inquiring , as they might, about the cause of my death. And somewhere there abouts they'd find an oddly withered, scribbled note, which said: " OH FucK!~ Keith Jarrett. He kills me!" Well, some people will never understand...Life is some parody of infinity..Ask yourself, how many people have told you they once threw up on Jimi Hendix's shoes? Man simply cannot , generally and with accuracy. perceive of infinity,-which is why I don't have a Girlfriend. { Please Laugh or run away scared}" wlp
There is no jazz better - what a great gift these musicians gave to the world
THAT WAS MAGICAL,As I sat and played this tune,Judy hummed to it as I played, she died a few weeks ago RIP darling.
From the very first few notes, you can hear it right away. Incredible mastery.
Keith Jarrett's ballads touch the innermost place of one's soul!!!!
They are filled with pure joy when they play

Keith ist der Chopin des Jazz und er wird noch lange überleben.
It says I want you to listen to this but up in heaven.
Listening to this for the fifth time, today.
Tremendously powerful and beautiful. it has the weight of a glacier moving slowly through itself and intimately profound. Very quiet, unassuming, rich and interesting. The artistry is marvelous.
Can we just take a moment to talk about Gary! OMG those pedal points! They just RING with passion! God, how I miss this trio!

30 years from this concert

+rwkenyon I think it just takes taking time and letting our inner silence grow--attributes that are not common now but are so desperately needed.
+John Rasmussen In my own case, I learned to appreciate jazz because I took piano lessons and trumpet lessons as a youngster.

+John Rasmussen I am not a musician. I am a music-lover or, as the French say, "Je suis mélomane." Pretty word!
Not possible- something that everybody loves cannot approach this quality. To each their own.
Pure Magic, Keith. Pure Magic, Keith. God Bless You.
Fantastic and poignant .. touching the chords of my soul
2:10 Ouf finally he is resolving What a Geniuus
Prodigioso Keith Jarrett y su excelente trío junto a otros virtuosos Peackot y De Johnette. El estado puro del jazz. De los mejores tríos en la historia del jazz.

Better without drums. Too much interference. Better if he'd just played the last few bars. Kind Regards.
😂
Beautiful...but I prefer the original..Bill Evans....
Oh so gorgeous. But I venture to say I don't think Gary Peacock swallows half as much as Steve Swallow does He always Looks like he wants to swallow-but what do you Do? Bring him a Lozemge?
