Description

1999 saw the release of what is, perhaps, one of the most intimate solo albums of the exceptional musician Keith Jarrett. To mark this anniversary, Schott have published faithful transcriptions, approved by Jarrett himself, of the jazz standards compiled on that album. Moving ballads like I Loves You Porgy and Blame It On My Youth are found next to the traditional Shenandoah in the pianist's unique interpretation. Remaining melody-oriented, Jarrett's interpretation gently lays bare the works' musical core.Besetzung:piano The Melody At Night, With You is, perhaps, Keith Jarrett's most intimate album. It is comprised of solo piano renderings of jazz ballads and folk songs, played with unmistakable affection. Jarrett dispenses with the jazz soloist's conventional emphasis on dexterity, the 'clever' phrase, the virtuosic sleight-of-hand. Instead he strips these songs to their melodic essence and, gently, lays bare their emotional core.This transcription, which has Keith Jarrett's personal approval, was worked out at the keyboard and aims, above all, for maximum playability within the greatest tonal range. Friedrich Grossnick, as an experienced pedagogue, has produced an outstanding score with particular sensitivity to Jarrett's interpretation thus enabling its faithful recreation on the piano.Instrumentation:piano I Loves You Porgy - I Got It Bat And That Ain't Good - Don't Ever Leave Me - Someone To Watch Over Me - My Wild Irish Rose - Blame It On My Youth (with Meditation) - Something To Remember You By - Be My Love - Shenandoah - I'm Through With Love
