Read "Jasmine" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

by Dan McClenaghan

In the world of jazz, it's often said that “live is better." The immediacy and spontaneity of a living, breathing, and hopefully rapt audience can lend electricity to a recording foray.

Keith Jarrett / Charlie Haden: Jasmine

Read "Jasmine" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

As close to a direct pipeline to the heart as anything, it's hard for music to be anything but intimate reflection of events transpiring in a musician's life. Pianist Keith Jarrett's last release--the stunning triple-disc Testament--Paris / London (ECM, 2009)--was, self-admittedly, impacted by the pianist's “incredibly vulnerable emotional state," but resulted in some of his deepest, ...
