Digital Booklet

"... Köln was Jarrett's moment and a turning point for the immensely influential ECM label too, which the album helped to bankroll for years to come."
- The Guardian
"The piano improvisations incorporate a broad spectrum of musical idioms and languages: classical, jazz, ethnic, gospel, folk, blues and pure sound, revealing a creative process based on a deeply conscious state of awakeness and listening in the moment, producing music both deeply personal, yet universal. This body of solo piano work is without precedent ..."

The Köln Concert was named by The Guardian as one of the 50 great moments in jazz, only one of the glowing reviews it received and continues to receive from critics around the world.
