Keith Jarrett is one of the finest musicians of this, or any other, century. Classically trained, Jarrett had star-making tenures in the ‘60s with Charles Lloyd and Miles Davis before dedicating himself to an acoustic solo and small group career. His 1971 ECM album Facing You marked the beginning of a four-decade association with the esteemed German label that continues today. Jarrett’s solo concerts – completely improvised – have stunned audiences and earned him a unique position in jazz history. The pianist also performs in the trio setting and since 1983 has enjoyed a nearly telepathic connection with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Jack DeJohnette. In 2005 Jarrett resumed his solo concert schedule and the new ECM 3-CD set, Paris/London ― Testament, documents inspired live performances from late 2008.
