I think the hardest part of transcribing this piece was having to pause the video so many times. It feels so wrong to interrupt such an incredible performance! In seriousness, I highly recommend playing through the sheet music, it's not hard to perform but Keith's playing can teach so much about the true meaning and the power of melody and harmony in music. It's like a constant reminder that beautiful music is in all of us, and we can use the simplest of means to create beautiful, touching moments.

@@angrytedtalks Absolutely true! The goal is to give a tool to help understand the musical ideas and concepts Keith Jarrett is using, but no sheet music (or even audio/video recording, for that matter, though that comes much closer) could ever really capture what Keith and the audience shared that day.

I'm not sure if you even realise how accurate that is b/c idk if you know Jarrett played classical too incl. Bach - and no other pianist I've heard comes from such a similar place as Gould regarding that pure clarity of articulation. Oh acc he made the only piano recordings of Handel's keyboard music that ever made any sense to me - they were on youtube, think they were removed years ago. I remember how he played the gigue from the D-monir suite I think acc makes you want to dance, again similar I would say to how Gould played the anglaise from Bach's french suite in B-minor, somehow made it more abstract and danceable by *omitting* a lot of the typical baroque ornamentation

An astounding fact is now that he's had a serious couple of 'strokes' and doesn't stand a chance of playing any more - he took it on board and said "Well I guess I'm not a piano player any more". That took guts. He was a multi instrumentalist and also performed brilliant classical pieces with orchestras too. A pure artist who will be so much missed and it feels odd to say that when it's not an obiituary. His lifetime contribution to art and beauty is immesurable. It's fair to say "he gave his all".

If you listen to other versions of him doing it, you'll realise that all of that is improvised.

All right man, you got me. Normally I always have something to say about music being ultimately subjective and personal and a matter of taste, but now that I've gotten that out of the way, let me just say wow...I've listened to many Keith Jarrett solos from many records and many configurations and until now I've held in special regard the rubato, solo piano intro to The Keith Jarrett's Standard's Trio version of 'The Days Of Wine And Roses', from this out standing 'The Complete Live At Blue Note'. That intro is nothing short of sonic poetry, but here it seem that KJ was able to channel that same poetry into an all more, full performance -and the fact that you included a transcription w/ both notation and Chord Changes makes it all the most incredible to appreciate. It's amazing that as much chops, dexterity, speed and technique that many great players have (and I surely appreciate all those elements in all kinds of players), it is arguably in the slow numbers that musician can truly show his lyricism and inner musical melodic self. Thanks so much for sharing.

And hopefully if it all survives till then, they will also get to watch him perform in videos. And come to feel, like some of us do, that we got to see this man bare his very soul. We witnessed a man who dedicated his whole life to the perfection of his craft so that he could do just that: bare his soul to us. Seriously, even with your intimates you've spent a lifetime around, how often can you say you've been privileged to bare witness to that? Tears stream down my face as I write this for this man who may never play another note on the piano again.

This is so beautiful. This is how you truly enjoy music. It’s raw form. Combining all the notes together and adding notes to compliment a already legendary composition. This is passion at its stripped down form. This is so incredible! Words cannot explain the feeling. You just have to close your eyes and go to your wonderland. Bravo! Magnificent!! 🙌🙌🙌

Keith Jarrett is the "Frederic Chopin" on jazz piano. Like Chopin, he spontaneously invented the most beautiful melodies in his improvisations and will therefore survive for a long time to come.

Watching this raises the classic question re Jarrett for me: how much of this was worked out in advance vs purely spontaneous? Some of those contrapuntal movements are so beautiful and clever it makes me think he had to have prepped this prior or is he that genius?

@@HSetonNotes improvisational musicians often have melodic vocabulary that they tend to use. I don’t think the stuff he was doing here was planned, but it was practiced, if that makes sense. Practicing improvisation is very much a thing, and people who mastered it (like him) can make it sound pre-written. So yes, “ideas” are practiced, but the exact notes are not, and not even necessarily for a specific song
