One of the jazz world's most unique and influential pianists since the 1960's, Keith Jarrett is known for his breathtaking solos and stylistic diversity. Live At Open Theater East showcases Jarrett's magic fingers as they interpret a number of classic jazz standards. Keith Jarrett Trio - Live At Open Theater East movie Backed by talented jazz stars Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette, Jarrett's music is as beautiful and inspiring as the setting-an illuminated outdoor ampitheater.
Pianist, composer, and bandleader Keith Jarrett is one of the most prolific, innovative, and iconoclastic musicians to emerge from the late 20th century. As a pianist (though that is by no means the only instrument he plays) he literally changed the conversation in jazz by introducing an entirely new aesthetic regarding solo improvisation in concert. Though capable of playing in a wide variety of styles, Jarrett is deeply grounded in the jazz tradition.

While he never came even remotely close to mainstream success, Beefheart's impact was incalculable, and his fingerprints were all over punk, new wave, and post-rock.
