Keith Jarrett - Munich 2016

A solo concert from Keith Jarrett � recorded at Munich�s Philharmonic Hall on July 16, 2016, on the last night of a European tour � finds the great improvising pianist at a peak of invention.

Creating a spontaneous suite of forms in the moment with the assurance of a master builder � interspersing touches of the blues and folksong lyricism between pieces of polyrhythmic and harmonic complexity � he delivers one of his very finest performances. An attentive and appreciative audience hangs on every note, every nuance, and is rewarded with some tender encores including a magical version of �It�s A Lonesome Old Town�.

There is, still, nothing else like a Keith Jarrett solo concert. �Through a series of brilliant solo performances and recordings that demonstrate his utterly spontaneous creativity,� the Polar Music Prize committee noted a few years ago, �Keith Jarrett has simultaneously lifted piano improvisation as an art form to new, unimaginable heights.�

Munich 2016 is released as a double album on both CD and vinyl (180g).
