Keith Jarrett
Manage episode 505405006 series 3573828
Keith Jarrett is one of the most celebrated pianists in jazz – a musician acclaimed for his emotionally intense and physically energetic performances. A prodigy who started playing piano at the age of 3, Keith built an uncanny talent for channeling genre-defying improvisations and lyrical sensitivity, bridging jazz, classical, and folk traditions.
As part of the Peabody Award-winning documentary series “Jazz Profiles,” this episode about Keith Jarrett was produced in 2000 by John Dilberto and narrated by the show host Nancy Wilson.
