On tonight’s programme, music journalist Billy O hAnluain profiles jazz pianist Keith Jarrett, famous for his legendary solo concert improvisations, ahead of his performance at the National Concert Hall Dublin next week.
We hear Jarrett in his own words from NPR interviews, and extracts from the Koln Concert, Jarrett’s best known work (which has sold over three million copies since its release in 1975); Old Rag from the album Somewhere Before; What I Say from Live Evil; Expectations, from the CD of the same name; All the Things You Are from Standards; My Wild Irish Rose from The Melody at Night With You; and the final track from his most recent album, Rio.
The programme takes a different approach to the arts with a series of one-hour specials, in-depth one-on-one interviews and panel discussions.
We hope you enjoy the programmes and please do contact us with your comments at artstonight@rte.ie
