Keith Jarrett is an American pianist and composer known for his wild and melodic improvisational jazz performances.
Born on May 8, 1945, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, pianist/composer Keith Jarrett came to prominence in the late 1960s, after joining Miles Davis for several concerts and albums. Jarrett led his own group, a trio, during the 1970s, and toured and recorded with Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek. By the 1980s, his public performance had turned to classical recitals. In 1983, he formed a highly acclaimed trio known as the “Standards Trio.“ Known for his wild and melodic improvisational jazz performances, Jarrett is considered one of the most original and prolific jazz musicians of the late 20th century.
The eldest of five boys, Keith Jarrett was born on May 8, 1945, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, to parents Daniel and Irma Jarrett. Jarrett’s mother worked to encourage and motivate her son’s talents during his youth. By the age of 3, he was already playing the piano. “When I was a little kid and I was studying piano,“ Jarrett remembered in an interview with The Sydney Morning Herald in October 2011, “I would get music that would look too difficult, so occasionally I remember saying to my mother, ’I don’t think I can play this piece.’ And she would say, ’Can you play the first note?’ I said, ’Yes.’ ’Can you play the second note?’ ’Yes.’ ’Well, then you can probably play the piece.’“
Throughout his childhood, Jarrett was classically trained by local piano teachers and attended programs at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia. He later received a scholarship to attend the Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. After finishing just one year of the program, he received an offer to move to Paris, France, and study under famed composer and conductor Nadia Boulanger. Instead of taking the opportunity to further his classical training, however, a 19-year-old Jarrett moved to New York City in favor of pursuing a jazz music career.
Career Success
New York City was an ideal place for a young prodigy to begin a career in jazz in the 1960s. Jarrett attended weekly jam sessions at the Village Vanguard jazz club in Greenwich Village, which led to his involvement in a number of projects, including performing with Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers, and joining the immensely popular Charles Lloyd Quartet as the band’s acoustic pianist. The Quartet toured throughout the United States and Western Europe, recording live albums to wild acclaim.
