As one of the most profoundly creative musicians of our time, jazz pianist Keith Jarrett is in a class all his own. One of the first musicians to perform improvised music at such major music centers as La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera, Jarrett has redefined the role of the piano in contemporary music and his seminal Koln Concert recording is the best-selling piano album in history. A fearless innovator, Jarrett has explored a broad spectrum of musical idioms and languages, from the electric jazz-fusion he played as a member of Miles Davis' early-'70s group to his acclaimed forays into the classical and Baroque repertoire. In 2003, Jarrett celebrated the 20th anniversary of his award-winning collaboration with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Jack DeJohnette, a trio with near-telepathic sensitivity to each other's playing. They have been hailed as one of the finest trios in jazz history, "a distillation of an astonishing amount of talent, will, and sheer creativity," says the Los Angeles Times.
