Keith Jarrett - Excerpt from Vienna Concert, Part I.
Taking an excerpt from the Vienna concert is like showing a two-minute clip of one’s most cherished movie, or reading three pages from one’s favorite book, or perhaps like having a long-distance relationship.
But Part I, which is available in its entirety here, is 41 minutes long; in its astonishing perfection, too, it can require more attention than is reasonable to request. I hope, perhaps absurdly, that this excerpt appeals; I think Jarrett is one of the finest musicians of our time.
(And here are some previous videos and comments about him).
I really love the Vienna Concert, but I think that the Koeln Concert (especially Part I) is even better.
Played 211 time(s).
