KEITH JARRETT - TALKING JAZZ

Nice interview / documentary with / about Keith made by Ekkehard Wetzel and Frank Zervos in 2007. Just found it is not on KZbin yet (at least not the complete version). Happy New Year, guys!

[@ukaykeys]

here is my Jarrett playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLTFdSA2EkOE17aZE29i55Aw7HMFVBC3QZ

He lacked an identity on the piano. Monk, Tyner, Tatum, etc., had their own identities. You knew it was them by their unique styles. I don't know Corea from Jarrett, or any of the other modern pianists. Like Wynton, if you have to talk too much (explain), then it's not coming from the instrument or the soul. 🙏🏼

[@clevjam]

Thank you my friend. I will now put myself in "intentional lala land" with some more selections from Keith Jarrett.

[@owenfazakerley4117]

His genius brings me to tears.

[@BlossomVpiano]

Thank you for sharing this amazing video. ❤ Playing from PURE SILENCE is the best way to improvise music. Music which gets 'downloaded' through our physical body and out through our fingers are unpredictable, unplanned and yet incredably amazing, full of surprises. Keith is in deep meditation each time he plays the piano even now that he's only able to play piano with one hand. My body gets the buzzing energy each time I hear him play. Thank you Mr. Keith Jarrett for your inspiration

[@ODQ327]

I’m going to watch it again! Right now! Thank you so much.

[@beatrixvantil8623]

wonderful , love the intimate connection with the audience ,his trio , his family ♥♥♥

[@reidwhitton6248]

Thank you, maestro Jarrett! Listening to music is one of the best things you can do for your brain. It's one of the few stimuli that engages every area of the brain at once.

[@tomhighsmith]

From the first note you recognize him and he has you hooked.

[@ukaykeys]

You say it!!!

[@duane2344]

I have just been reintroduced to Keith Jarrett listening (and buying) the Koln concert. In my 20's I bought his album Shades. Just learned he played with Miles Davis. These two gentlemen give me happiness and joy through their music by their ability to express their emotions and feelings out to us the listeners. Thank you Keith!

[@TerryPhenicie]

Sir, you have provided me inspiration since 1981, truly.

[@juliancorcuera4476]

Thank you very much for sharing this video.

[@mazieways]

Beautiful and brave man, it’s not an easy road to be true to oneself and to share that!

[@noahellis5250]

Wow, what an incredible interview-thanks so much for posting it! The way he describes his motivation behind the improvised solo concerts reminded me of Allan Holdsworth's conception of improvisation. I also loved the Miles anecdote and the description of the 'Standards' group experience as well as the reflection on the personal demands of being an artist. Just a fantastic interview piece overall!

[@ulrichhobler8755]

Keith Jarrett is a unique artist. The peronification of musical beauty.

[@DwayneJohnsonCochran]

A very enthusastic thank you for finding this interview. Keith Jarrett is a brilliant and heroic artist. He makes magic every time he walks out on stage.

[@timbruer7318]

Thanks for this, it's great to see.

[@tylerkidd8392]

Thanks for this amazing video. This is incredible.

[@yerkeshbaltabay2188]

Thanks a lot!

[@PedroMachadoPT]

The greatest artist alive. I listen to his music every day.

[@ericmitchell9331]

Thanks Uwe!

[@robertpetsel54]

Thank you so much for this, I’ve learned so much about Keith.

[@guidokorbach]

Wie gut, dass das Du eingestellt hast, ich habe den Text bzw das was Keith Jarrett hier sagt - vielleicht vor 15 Jahren ? irgendwo gelesen und v.a. wenn man selbst improvisiert, können einen seine Worte, die aus seiner Eigenbeobachtung entstammen tief berühren. Für mich selbst gehört und gelesen, fühlte ich mich erkannt. Keith Jarrett gehört wirklich zu den größten Ausnahmeerscheinungen der improvisierten Klaviermusik und es stimmt mich sehr traurig, dass er seit Schlaganfällen keine Konzerte mehr geben kann. Vielen Dank.Uwe.

[@ukaykeys]

Schön gesagt, Guido - dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen!

[@michaelfoxbrass]

I appreciate your insights into and experiences of Keith’s music-making.

[@MuzoSTEIN]

Many thanks, uploader! This entire video footage used to exist on KZbin, many KJ fan's would be surprised it no long did; until now!

[@freiherr260]

Definitely one of the greatest improvisers and jazz pianists of all times (That Köln concert still gives me goosebumps. Man, wish I was there in 1975...) Too bad there are so few in-depth interwiews with artists like this. On a side-note (!) - Keith gets exactly the same smile as Herbie Hancock when talking about his cooperation with Miles😄. Don't know if it's true, but Miles apparently once said about his rhythm section some time in the 1980's; "I've been looking my whole life for a drummer that can keep the time. Now I've found a drum machine that can". As always; thanks for uploading. Stay safe, and a happy new year. (Cold up here in Norway now, -30 C)

[@ukaykeys]

the drum quote sounds like a Miles original 😅 Nevertheless, I would say he always had good drummers on the stage - Tony Williams, Lenny White, Jack DeJohnette or Ricky Wellman in the 80ies, just to name a few....

[@freiherr260]

Absolutely. Great all of them.

[@tortera]

Thank you so much for sharing. Just brilliant.

Keith Jarrett, where did you go to produce such an inspirational notes that transcend logic and¡d time?

[@lucindawilson5510]

thank you

[@plootyluvsturtle9843]

No one can resist doing an impression of Miles when they quote him, not even Keith

[@TheJohnnyBE]

When he plays at the beginning @ 1:02, is that from Tokyo 2002? Thanks.

[@scandot]

that miles story at 9:45 takes the cake….

[@jamesratner7889]

His hand "knows what to play" because it is attached to his mind.

[@michaelfoxbrass]

“The audience ends up being a commissioning body. They commission the work.” - Keith Jarrett referring to fully improvised concert-making.

As an Italian I'd like to apologise for the bad food Keith..

[@ilainmoe1921]

what's secret ingredient to get such a masterpiece from him

[@0paul187]

anyone knows what is his glasses?😂

[@larrytemp3063]

IS THIS MR. JARRETT LATEST INTERVIEW ❓️👍👀

[@ukaykeys]

no, Rick Beato did the last one, I guess...

[@theprior46]

So sad that he can't do this any more and poignant that he spoke of physical disability would stop the relationship which was a bit of clairvoyance on his part as he has had more than one stroke but also his long time bass player Gary Peacock died recently. Jarrets legacy will like that of Bill Evans and all the "greats" live on in recordings. I can't say I understand his deep spiritual insights and I don't think it can be true that his hands dictate what his head will play - something weird about that - hands have no brains. But certainly his attachment to music was utterly unique. We will never see his like again.

[@reidwhitton6248]

Hands don't need brains. It's all connected. Anyone who's played an instrument to a proficient level knows that when you are performing you don't think about it. You've already put in the countless hours of practice and study and off you go.

[@mazieways]

It’s a state of flow that many creatives describe, where they are open and things flow through them… everything in the universe is energy and I can imagine how a whole audience there to experience you sends out an energy field that a creative open person could tune into… it’s mysterious, to all involved, like magic!

[@santiagoiglesiasbelendez5836]

Transporting

[@rillloudmother]

jarrett is the boomer monk. i do not say this lightly.

[@dannyshortmusic]

This man’s pretentious has no ends. He is playing the piano, not saving lives.

[@chickenringNYC]

True and not true

[@ukaykeys]

he never claimed that. And he didn't save my life, but made it MUCH better 🎹

[@mazieways]

I think he’s being bravely courageous and music can and has saved lives…
