Mark Stryker Posted February 25, 2023 Report Share Posted February 25, 2023 Time marches on. This remarkable recent video interview with Keith Jarrett, including the pianist actually playing a bit with his right-hand only -- two strokes have left his left hand inoperable -- is something to witness.

Well, sure; but he has Jarrett' trust enough to get him on camera so gets a pass from me because I doubt anyone else could have made this happen.

Milestones Posted February 26, 2023 Report Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) I guess no one should be surprised that Jarrett sounds good playing with one hand. I think he should record again--perhaps in a duo or trio setting. I'm surprised he was not asked about doing a new recording...that is, an official one (the man probably records frequently in his home studio).

Joe Posted February 26, 2023 Report Share Posted February 26, 2023 A little Rick Beato goes a long way for me. Same but less so for Jarret. Still, this is a nice interview. Highlights include Keith talking about his relationship to triads and everything that's happening as he listens to himself play "Solar."

CJ Shearn Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 This interview was really moving, the gentle life reflection, and his playing with one hand who was incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spontooneous Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Not a Beato fan, but props for making this happen. A favorite moment, I may not have the quote exact: Near the end, Keith sadly says, "I had more hands then." Then his tone changes as he says, "But only one more!"

GregK Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 I'm a little puzzled by all the comments regarding this Beato guy. Did I miss something, who is he? I've never heard of him before this interview, so I don't have much opinion of him. Is he famous or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sire of young Golden Ears: That is how he became as famous as he is now: he leveraged that video into a sort of 'influencer' career. He had some success as a rock musician in the 90s and also wrote a decent music theory book. I've liked some of his videos well enough, but can understand how he might be annoying to people. He's really very sincere, or good at acting like it. He kind of has bad taste too, since it is for me to judge 😉- like he will play some obscure 90s rock song that uses a few extended chords and gush over how genius the writers were. If he is reaching people with his music theory videos though I say more power to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted March 2, 2023 Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 Huh, I had no idea. I pretty much avoid youtube except for when a link is sent to me, so I wouldn't know of anyone "youtube famous". Good interview with Jarrett though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlhoots Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Not mentioned - there's a Jarrett interview in the Mar. issue of Down Beat. Different interviewer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
