The album will be released in early October 2009 (e.g. October 2 in Germany and October 6 in the US).

Update (September 10, 2009). You can listen to samples from each track on Amazon Germany.

Keith Jarrett’s next album will be a 3-CD set entitled “Testament (Paris/London)”. It will be released in late 2009 (probably October, but this is subject to change). It will probably include parts (or the entirety?) of two solo concerts from last year:

  • Salle Pleyel, Paris (November 26, 2008)
  • Royal Festival Hall, London (December 1, 2008)

Jacques adds that, according to an interview published in Jazzman in 2005, “Testament” is the name Keith Jarrett originally wanted to give to “Radiance”. It probably says something about the quality of the music on “Testament” (at least from Keith Jarrett’s point of view).

Update (July 29, 2009). Looks like the official release date is October 5, 2009 (according to the London concert “programme”).

Update (August 21, 2009). According to AllBlues and Amazon.de, the album should be released on October 2, 2009 in Switzerland and Germany (and probably other European countries).

Update (August 26, 2009). Amazon now has the cover artwork on their Web sites (UK, Germany, France, etc.). The number of discs (three!) is also confirmed.

Music Group, as well as on KeithJarrett.it). Anyway, the musicians among you might be interested in “Keith Jarrett’s Transformation of Standard Tunes: Theory, Analysis and Pedagogy”, a book written by Dariusz Terefenko and published on March 11, 2009 by VDM Verlag. It’s apparently very technical, so it’s probably not for everybody.

“Although they’re pretty much regulars there, it’s probably worth noting that the trio with the big T are part of the official program of Jazz à Juan this year also.”

Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock, and Jack DeJohnette will play at the Pinède Gould in Juan-les-Pins on July 18, 2009 at 9 PM. The rest of the program for the 49th Festival de Jazz à Juan is available here (a press release in French is also available). Tickets will go on sale on April 20.

I guess the information is now more or less official, although the concert is not yet listed on the ECM Records Web site: Keith Jarrett will play a solo concert at the Philharmonie in Berlin on October 12, 2009. I don’t know when or where the tickets will go on sale, but they might be available at some point from the Berliner Philharmoniker Web site. More about this later, hopefully.

The confusion comes from the fact that ECM Records is currently listing the concert under “Keith Jarrett” and not under “Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock, Jack DeJohnette”.

Group, Keith Jarrett’s next album “Yesterdays” will be released on January 26, 2009 and will also be available on vinyl. Excerpt from the “program” for the recent concert in London:

“2001 was a vintage year for the Jarrett Trio, as three outstanding live albums – The Out-Of-Towners, Always Let Me Go and My Foolish Heart – have already shown. Yesterdays, recorded at Tokyo’s Metropolitan Festival Hall, is a fourth, with all-standards programme and a strong emphasis on bebop. It will be available in two versions: as single CD or double-LP with 180 gram vinyl – the first new vinyl release on ECM in 15 years.”

Thomas A. McGraw contacted Heino Frieberg at ECM Records. Here’s what Mr. Frieberg has to say about the lack of new releases in 2008:

“It’s right, this year we focused on re-issues and some DVD documentations for Jarrett. Who knows, to balance for that we may come up with a second new release of him later in 2009 …”

The December issue of Downbeat, which includes a 5-page article about Keith Jarrett, mentions that the album is a live recording from one or several concerts from 2001 in Tokyo. Steve Lake, from ECM Records, adds that the album will consist of “eight pieces from April 30, 2001 at Metropolitan Festival Hall, plus one piece recorded at a sound-check on April 24 at Orchard Hall”.
