Description:

50 years after his ECM debut and first solo piano album "Facing You", the cornerstone of the legendary "Cologne Concert", the best-selling jazz piano album of all time - 3 days after "Budapest Concert" and 10 days before "Munich 2016". The last French solo performance took place in That unique world of tension, release, surprise and excitement that can only be experienced in Keith's live performances! A record of the 2016 standing ovation by the solitary pianist who created the concept of the solo piano concert. Recorded live at a solo concert in Bordeaux, France on July 6, 2016 by the innovative pianist who changed the concept of the solo piano concert after his still long-selling "Cologne Concert". A rare recording of Keith Jarrett, who has not performed any concerts since his one-night-only concert at Carnegie Hall, NY on February 15, 2017. Thirteen songs, all improvised. This is another special document from his last European tour.Each of Jarrett's solo piano concerts in 2016 had its own distinct character, but in Bordeaux the lyrical impulses come to the fore. There are many quiet discoveries in the improvised suites, the music as a whole has a touching freshness and a sense of intimate communication.The French press, reviewing the July 2016 performance, said that hints of the "Cologne Concert" and "Solo Concert" are found in the flow of this performance, and the songs included in the "Bordeaux Concert" are beautiful. Gentle songs are drawn from the air, which Francis Malman describes in Le Monde as "awakening to a consciousness of time free from the noise and weariness of the world, evoking a community listening at the edge of silence."
