“Keith Jarrett: The Cologne Concert” available for streaming (BBC Radio 4)
BBC Radio 4 recently broadcast a half-hour programme about “The Köln Concert”. For those who missed it, it is available for streaming from bbc.co.uk.
Paul Gambaccini presents the award-winning series that re-visits the occasions on which a classic live album was recorded. He hears from those who were there, on-stage, backstage and in the audience, to re-create the event for all of us who, each time we play the album, think: ‘If only I could have been there’.
Thanks to Cristiano for the information.

“The epochal double-album. Keith Jarrett’s 1975 “The Köln Concert” is one of the handful of jazz records that have changed the history of the music.

Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock & Jack DeJohnette, Still Live:
“Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock, and Jack DeJohnette captured live in full creative flood in the Munich Philharmonie, stretching the standards to shape new music, as Jarrett originals segue into “You And The Night And The Music” and “Someday My Prince Will Come”.”
Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock & Jack DeJohnette, Tribute:
“Keith Jarrett returns to Köln – this time with his trio – to pay tribute to the great jazz improvisers through the medium of standards, renewing songs associated with John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Jim Hall, Lee Konitz, Sonny Rollins and more.”
