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.

“The Köln Concert”, “Still Live”, and “Tribute” available as audiophile 180-gram vinyl pressings

I somehow missed this news: “The Köln Concert”, “Still Live”, and “Tribute” are available as audiophile 180-gram vinyl pressings since July 2010.

Keith Jarrett, The Köln Concert:

“The epochal double-album. Keith Jarrett’s 1975 “The Köln Concert” is one of the handful of jazz records that have changed the history of the music. The best-selling solo piano recording of all time, this endlessly inventive and highly lyrical recital reveals a master improviser creating forms in the moment. – Now available as 180g audiophile vinyl edition!”

Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock & Jack DeJohnette, Still Live:

“Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock, and Jack DeJohnette captured live in full creative flood in the Munich Philharmonie, stretching the standards to shape new music, as Jarrett originals segue into “You And The Night And The Music” and “Someday My Prince Will Come”.”

Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock & Jack DeJohnette, Tribute:

“Keith Jarrett returns to Köln – this time with his trio – to pay tribute to the great jazz improvisers through the medium of standards, renewing songs associated with John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Jim Hall, Lee Konitz, Sonny Rollins and more.”
