Movie Reviews of Keith Jarrett - Tokyo Solo
Movie Review: Keith Jarrett - Master of Improvisation
Summary: 5 Stars
Keith Jarrett's Tokyo Solo is an excellent documentation of Jarrett's world of improvisation, beautifully filmed and recorded live. This is nothing at all like his playing with his Standards Trio, where one can swing along to the beat of Autumn Leaves or Oleo. No, these solo piano improvisations are free, abstract forays into what I'd call "pure awareness" and being "in the moment." Here we are witnessing an artist who is a human vessel through which the infinite creative energies of the universe flow! His genius is in harnessing these energies into coherent essays that maintain individual character and context throughout each piece, titled only as "Part" numbers. After enduring the eight Parts of the complete concert (inherently intellectual), Jarrett treats us to beautifully emotional encores of Danny Boy, Old Man River, and Don't Worry 'Bout Me.
Jarrett's improvisations typically fall into 3 catagories: the hymnlike ballad with lyric melodies; the spastic, atonal free-for-all; and the repeated, rhythmic groove - or various combinations of each of these.
Of course, his incredible technique allows for a very orchestral approach at the piano. An incredible variety of effects and textures are the result.
This is a great study of a master of improvisation at his finest. A must-have addition for any serious fan who can honor Jarrett's process as much as the music itself. A few of these tracks have also been included in Jarrett's latest CD, Radiance.
