One of the first things I discovered in 1979 when I fled the Midwest and ended up in California where I stayed, was Keith and The Koln Concert. I've never been without it in my life after all these years.

Le meilleur de Keith Jarrett...

Everything will be fine and you will shine like a rising star with great success and wealth

aprendí a dibujar ante modelo, con asistencia mía al más sensible taller, y ante el más acreditado "maestro del oficio" en mi país. Hice de este concierto mística sonoridad anímica y hábitat durante trayecto inicial, movimiento puro, sin pausas, prolongadas sesiones a guiso de estudio. Trabajaba con un Mimo, especialista en dinámica, gestualidad "in situo," y gran evocación tempus/corporal. la otra presencia libre, de atavismos. Un corpus ferroso y femenino, gastado, expresivo, conexo y esotérico. Ambos, espasmo, dominio corporal e incansable intensidad a flor.y de ahí, desarrollo extenso y trazos; creo yo, a la altura del "Piano" "per se.."

Piękne , mam łzy w oczach kiedy słucham zwłaszcza części 2b- marzy mi się usłyszeć tej właśnie części w wykonaniu Pani Marthy Argerich.Poezja muzyki

I bought this album in 1976 in a department store in Baltimore, knowing nothing at all about jazz or Keith Jarrett. I was deeply into black and white photography at the time, and loved the cover. I listened to the record many times, not really understanding anything about the playing or the history of it. For reasons that are still a mystery, it just lit up something in me. Now, almost 50 years later, it still has the same effect - I have listened to it hundreds of times. This and Coltrane's A Love Supreme are to me the pinnacle of spiritual music, coming from somewhere else in the universe, channeled by geniuses.

OF COURSE I HAVE THE ORIGINAL VINYL RECORD! I SAW HIM IN THE SUPER 77´PARIS CONCERT, WITH THE FAMOUS QUARTET MARK 2 - GARBAREK/DANIELSSON/CHRISTENSEN

That the entire performance was completely improvised, and played on a broken piano is absolutely mind blowing. I did not realise that he incorporated the faults on the piano into the performance, turning the damaged foot peddle for instance, into a percussive element of the music. Keith Jarrett is perhaps the greatest living improvisor in music today. His playing moves beyond jazz and enters in to a transcendent musical landscape that will hold listeners in awe for generations to come.

This is a demonstration of the artist becoming part of the instrument. This is beyond playing. Brilliant.

Sorry, but how can an "unplayable, broken " piano sound so good??

Discovered this masterpiece in Casablanca in 1987, I was 18, Michel one of my father's friend recorded it to me on a tape and gave me a piece of hash, telling me to smoke it before listening... Won't never forger the trip !

kenne ich auswendig, seit ich 18 bin.

Fabuloso! Desde que compré el disco es uno que escucho con atención y fascinación. Lo recomiendo mil veces.

Quelle merveille!

Something special.

KJ = Genius

Hands up if you came here after watching the David Hartley video! 🙂

Flying into Frankfurt in 1976 as the Sun was coming up, I put on the earphones selecting jazz, and this is what I heard. It’s my most treasured album that I possess. Bless you Mr Jarrett. Thank you for enriching my life. ❤

Music in dream. Thanks!

Music is time travel. This piece throws me back to when I was 29. What a strange year it was. What a time I had. Wild and hard, waves crashing, bombs falling. I let Life navigate me through it, I am here, and so is Keith music. Maybe Life is timeless after all.

私が学生の時に初めて聴いて、その美しさと情緒の深さに感動をしました。 あれから40年がたちますが今だに聴いていて飽きることはありません！ なんと普遍的な音楽でしょうか？ 感謝しかありません。

Am I the only one hearing the verse melody of Coldplay´s "Yellow" at 00:14:24 ?

Pur GENIOUS, Profond SOUND, Delightful!!!

I love this , I have listened to this album perhaps a hundred times over the last fifteen years it never grows old and every time I play it I am moved by his passion of play and depth of feeling ,just perfection and fabulous

he did what nobody else achieved :pop

Everytime I listen to it, it gives me goosebumps. 2 copies on LP, 2 CDs, 1 high res digital download, and on streaming, of course. All good.

Lady gave me this album for my bday and I found it boring. Just listened again, got bored.I must be one of those philistines.

Wow.

Esto lo tiene todo.......íes mágico, bello, sublime, jazz, gospel, música clásica, ragtime.!

Brilliant, genius. I think the tuner deserves a LOT of credit because the tuning is rather good.

Éste tema es parte de mí, Keith es inigualable. Gracias por llevarnos tan lejos..Genio

If this was written down it would be recognized as one of the world's greatest modern compositions and be played in concert halls all across the world by the world's top pianists. Perhaps a transcription will someday be available. Just magnificent. What a genius.

What a wonderful sound and melody. So light and bright. ✨🫧✨🫧✨

He was in back pain, exhausted from traveling by car, hungry, and playing on a broken piano. All improvised. Incredible!

Try to find this video, telling the story behind the Cologne Concert. How a total disaster became the world’s best-selling piano album - KZfaq kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ra-IgM6LpsnLgqM.html

first time i hear keith , i was 20 ! never come back lol !

Avevo pochi anni e vent'anni sembran pochi, poi ti volti a guardarli e non li trovi più. E mi ricordo infatti un pomeriggio triste, ..ascoltando questo Mantra .. almeno così lo definì il mio amico Anthony ,seduti sul ciglio di una strada a contemplare l'America...

Thank you for your komments ! So i am not alone whis the love of this Konzert!

Keith, you found your way right into my soul.....tears of joy....

The best of the xx century

Heroic upload, thank you Giovanni

Very few musical pieces bring me to tears, this definitely is one of them. It's cathartic. Bought the guitar transcription and started studying it, decades ago. Never learnt it, never will. Luckily to have found Mr. Jarrett. A more recent artist who has a few moving and beautiful pieces is Jacob Collier. They are at another level.

ich war dabei.....großartiges Konzert

Heard it first in 1975 ( I was 13 then ). Ruptured the tape cassette... got another one.. and then another. When at last I was able, bought the LP, And when it was no longer audible bought another; recorded it on tape cassettes so I wouldn't spend time without it. When it came out on CD, of course, bought one. It became wasted from too much use on my auto. Bought another, My son got it scratched when he was very little... he now has a masters degree on piano. He also loves this album....
