Please consider donating to my fund to transcribe Keith Jarrett's "Osaka, Pt. 1" from The Sun Bear Concerts. I will be making PDFs of each section available as I finish them. More information can be found here: gofund.me/cf065ef8

Keith is so emotionally expressive and so loose creatively. Other recorded versions of him playing Heartland are filled with strikingly different moments. In general he seems to have maintained an unusually high level of integrity as an artist throughout his career, always going for something meaningful, sincere and remaining supremely committed to the art of improvisation. I also love that he was never afraid to be beautiful in a tender kind of way that many seem to avoid. In my opinion he mostly managed to resist falling into that show business entertainer trap that many fall prey to as well. Also, this a terrific and easy on the eyes transcription as usual! Thank you!

No one comes close to this aspect of Jarrett's playing which isn't surprising as he basically invented it!! Gospel infused with Copland gestures.It's the seed for Metheny's 'Americana' genre as Pat acknowledges....Someone should write lyrics to Keith''s best tunes.I remember an interview where he stated that he'd composed many 'standard' type songs which he thought someone like Linda Ronstadt could record.It was about 25 years ago i think in a Keyboard Magazine interview.

Thanks for recognizing the Copland influence. Whether it's conscious on Keith's part or happened through osmosis, it is indeed there.

Cool! Thanks for sharing. I prefer the other version, probably because I’ve heard it countless times. If I had to guess which version was played earlier, I’d pick this version (…and I’d be wrong). Cheers from Finland!

Good job, Michael. Just one question, to me it sounds like every 2 bars is one with the quarter note being worth 66 bpm...
@michaellucke2654Ай бұрын
yeah, it could be written out that way. I chose to write it out the way I did because I think it's easier to read
@AEPMUSlCАй бұрын
@@michaellucke2654 It is easier to read, but if we get really picky it could be written as 2/2, cut time. Anyway, thank you for all your transcriptions, they're super fun to watch :) Whether it's written in 16ths or 8ths is just nerdiness.
@michaellucke2654Ай бұрын
Yeah for sure. I did think of putting it in cut time for a second, but decided not to. No real strong reason for that, though, and honestly that would probably be more correct.
@AEPMUSlCАй бұрын
@@michaellucke2654 I bet if you'd put it in cut time someone else would question what it even means xD I'd argue this is easier to read mainly for practice, you can choose if you feel it as 4/4 or 2/2.
@nezkeys79Ай бұрын
@AEPMUSlC I don't even understand what the op is saying 😅 One bar of 66 bpm every 2 bars? One crotchet that's 66bpm every 2 bars? If he means the accent he sometimes places on the 4th beat of the bar (to match the melody) then it doesn't change anything for me as the the whole thing is either 2/2 or 4/4

You can probably sight read the thing at the end.

Depends on your sightreading - most good readers can breeze through the whole transcription

@KingstonCzajkowski yep agreed simple to read but to have his feel is another thing

Beautiful! A stirring pastoral hymn, with lovely harmonic framework. But the staccato treatment around 3:00 to 4:00 doesn’t work for me personally, turning the hymn into a military march. Nothing wrong with military marches, but feels out of place here.

@jonasarasАй бұрын
Cory is a brilliant player, but you simply cannot compare his musical output to Keith’s wide-ranging career. It’s not even close.
@eros88keys4 күн бұрын
I love Cory’s playing, but Keith is on a whole other level. He is one of the greatest pianists of all time.
