"As completely free improvisation, this is just as spellbinding as the piano pieces and has even been compared to his famous Köln Concert. At times it sounds almost electronic."
- The Guardian
"... fully restored, reveals itself to be a near-perfect recording ... a continuation of Jarrett's solo piano explorations but, performed instead on (organ) ... can finally be heard in its full and remastered glory, taking its rightful place as one of Jarrett's most significant recordings ..."
- All About Jazz
"... even if Hymns/Spheres is seen as an anomaly in Jarrett’s discography today, it’s a singularly stunning one ... Jarrett’s facility on the instrument is mighty and his classical sensibility is unimpeachable. The end result is stately music that serves to add to our admiration of him as an indefatigably intrepid artist."

For the first time digitally, Keith Jarrett's entire 1976 album Hymns/Spheres has been restored to its full double-vinyl length on this reissue. Jarrett recorded these improvisations on the famous historic Baroque pipe organ at the Benedictine Abbey in Ottobeuren, Germany.
