Keith Jarrett
on: April 27, 2005, 04:51:43 AM
I am just curious, what does everyone think of Keith Jarrett as a classical pianist?
I am a huge fan of his as a jazz musician but not that exposed to his classical recordings.  I have a recording of Shostakovich 24 P&F and I love it but I haven't really heard this played by many other pianists.  I have also heard his recording of Handel's keyboard suites and really liked it.  I know that he recorded WTC and a few Mozart concertos but have not heard any of these recordings.

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.
