"Solo concert at Budokan in 1978 was the one of the good examples of those challenges. At that time, it was reckless of Koinuma to have promoted a concert of a jazz player, in itself at the biggest venue known by the appearances of pop and rock music superstar in the world, however, considering that there had been no problems about acoustics before at the recital of a noted pianist of classic music, Koinuma had sounded Mr. Jarrett on this project, and he had taken a decisive step to play at Budokan. Usually, a stage will be set at the one of the four corners of the colosseum style hall (10,000 people admitted), but Koinuma set up a stage at the center of the hall and there had never been such a concert that 12,000 audience had been listening to his acoustic sound, surrounding Keith Jarrett. At the moment a dead silence fell over the audience, just before the opening of the concert, the air-conditioner of the venue discovered to be felt as a noise, had been immediately stopped. The audience had been satisfied with his performance in the genuine silence in the middle of cold winter."

There are both advantages and disadvantages to being old. Though I feel my age at times, I also relish the fact that I am old enough to have shared mother earth with a voice like this one for longer than many have. Living in the Tokyo area at the time, I was at this concert, almost 35 years ago. I always wondered if I'd ever hear it again. Thank you, se146np for the opportunity. I have the concert "book" as well; one day I'll have to translate it from the Japanese and post it on line.

That's amazing. Keith Jarrett changed my life, musically and spiritually and I cannot even imagine seeing him live..
It's still hard for me to believe, but I was in the audience for this one. Never thought there'd be a bootleg of it to hear! Thank you se146np!

How I envy you... sometimes I sit back and just think what you guys were in for! Can you describe the hall, the experience, the audience, the atmosphere?
Happy birthday, Maestro! (08.05.'45.)
very beautiful thank you 🙏💐
this is heartbreakingly beautiful. truly an open door to contemplative jazz. Jarrett has been working in this spiritual realm since I have been aware of his music. I hope he knows how much his music is treasured. Bill Turley
Jarrett the Genius. What else can I say? Loved his solo work FOR FIFTY YEARS NOW!!!!! I'm not about to stop. Thanks for putiing him up for me
Have your best birthday EVER, Mr. Jarrett! You deserve it. This Tokyo gig is a masterwork if anything is. I've followed you since the mid 70s and am still intrigued by your passion, your commitment. Thanks for all of it. Robert T.
Thanks a million! Beautifull My Song! Greeting from Japan!

AMEN! I can only echo Thomas Brunner's praise and thanks. I was fortunate to own an Upstate New York concert nightclub in the late 1970s where Keith Jarrett played for two magnificent nights that were among our best E-V-E-R!!

***** BTW, comments on this thread all seem totally positive: I hope my comment doesn't draw in the perverse poster who opined re another Jarrett KZread track that Jarrett was "overrated, little talented, pretentious..." Happy to say that his ignorant views were outshouted by dozens!
Keith is my favorite along with Bill Evans. So beautiful, spiritual, thoughtful, calming, creative, spontaneous and full of life!!
that must be a surreal experience, hearing the music again...thanks for sharing your story!
アップありがとうございます。音響の悪い武道館でソロをやるのは、今では想像できないくらいです。当時は観客のキャパを優先していたのでしょうか。1976年のサンベアでは大阪サンケイホールなど意外に小さい会場でしたね。
I don't like to imagine how much recordings of KJ never will be published on CD . I think the audience all over the world deserves to get knowledge of every music he did.
i love you
The encore is the best version of My Song ever. It's such a greasy tune - but when he plays it I can't say any word
Thank you so much
Jarrett may have a reputation for being a little difficult but when he plays like this you can forgive him for anything; beautiful music created by a master piano player. I have not heard this set before so thank's for sharing this.
Gracias! crecí con esta música y la extraño!!!
Melancholy shores and strange tides, yay!
great, great great!
siempre que quiero meditar, escuchando su música me dejo llevar...cientos de viajes, Keith,gracias!!!
thank you,an outstanding concert!
Thanks to up-load.
Shivers...
I have just about everything Keith ever recorded including laser disc stuff and all the LP's but I never heard this solo piece. Thank you

Hi Dennis, I agree it is great to discover this recording: I did it today while looking for another that Shazam would not find. So it is possible you don't know this other breathtaking recording from live concert in Antibes, France in 1979. I have just emailed the radio to know how I can get it, today they broadcaster part1 tomorrow they'll broadcast part 2.

Thé producer of theradioprogram already answered me: that Antibes concert is unpublished...
I adore his music. Can any one tell me who else I may enjoy, particularly solo artists

Dave Adams George Peacock I also love Jarrett above almost any other jazz piano great (especially when he played at The Unicorn (a [relatively] intimate nightclub ["concert club"] that I co-owned in the 1970s in Ithaca, NY, an Upstate NY 'college town.' The Unicorn wasn't exclusively jazz, but still, more jazz than any other musical genre. The owners and the audiences hear jazz concerts that I still remember fondly even today, having emigrated to Australia (which I ALSO LOVE!) LONG INTRO TO SHORT COMMENT RE DAVE'S POST: I don't know Richard Bierach, but I DO KNOW (AND TRUST!) ECM, which I consider a uniquely WONDERFUL label, ie. I'VE NEVER HEARD AN ECM RECORDING THAT WASN'T GOOD OR WORTH LISTENING TO! => For THAT REASON, although the artist/recording not familiar to me, I would still guess IT'S BRILLIANT! Thanks, Dave, I will definitely search KZread for it ASAP!!

George Peacock Brad Mehldau is one of the most similar jazz pianist to Jarrett. His solo stuff is very reminiscent of Jarrett's folk influence and openness to let the music travel anywhere. Check out Mehldau's "live in Vienna Concert." Really inspiring stuff.

Awesome performance. I wonder why he cries out now and then. Reminds me of Glenn Gould, not the playing but the vocalizing. It's like some kind of anguish. Must be the difficulty of playing music of such a high level.

ooh ah oh yeah
one of his greatest shows - check out my transcription of Part I here on KZread! Thanks for the upload :-)
i wish there was a digital or vinyl audio...
Yeah, it can be heard that it's from tape. Would love to have this in good quality.
1.29.06 is My Song.
