“Keith Jarrett: The Cologne Concert” available for streaming (BBC Radio 4)

BBC Radio 4 recently broadcast a half-hour programme about “The Köln Concert”. For those who missed it, it is available for streaming from bbc.co.uk.

Paul Gambaccini presents the award-winning series that re-visits the occasions on which a classic live album was recorded. He hears from those who were there, on-stage, backstage and in the audience, to re-create the event for all of us who, each time we play the album, think: ‘If only I could have been there’.

Thanks to Cristiano for the information.

Solo concert in Seoul on June 2, 2011

Keith Jarrett will play a solo concert at the Sejong Center in Seoul on June 2, 2011. The concert is already listed on ecmrecords.com. I don’t know when tickets will go on sale. Let me know if you have any information.

Thanks to TJ for the information!

Update (February 16, 2011). Tickets should go on sale on April 1, 2011 through Ticketpark.

Update (April 5, 2011). As mentioned in the forum, tickets are available, but not on the English version of the Ticketpark website, only on the Korean version. You can buy tickets by phone. Apparently, at some point, you can dial 9 to speak to an English-speaking employee, but I haven’t tried that personally.
