Event Details
Following up on his recent sold out Keith Jarrett show at the Vancouver Playhouse, multiple time Juno winner Chris Gestrin returns to the music of Keith Jarrett at this very special concert at Pyatt Hall. This time he’ll be exploring the music of Jarrett’s European Quartet, which featured Jarrett on piano, Jan Garbarek on reeds, Pall Danielsson & Jon Christensen on drums.
To help Chris celebrate the music of this acclaimed group, he’s put together a quartet of some of the Canadian Jazz Scene’s most respected musicians:
Jon Bentley – Saxophones
Jodi Proznick – Bass
Joe Poole – Drums
Keith Jarrett’s European Quartet was jazz group featuring pianist Keith Jarrett, saxophonist Jan Garbarek, bassist Palle Danielsson, and drummer Jon Christensen, active in the mid-to-late 1970s. Their distinctive sound, a blend of lyrical melody and free improvisation, became synonymous with the aesthetic of the German record label, ECM. It was and continues to be hugely influential to the sound of jazz and creative music. For this concert, Chris has put together a quartet featuring some of his great friends and musicians from Vancouver to pay tribute to some of Jarrett’s unique and beautiful compositions from this time frame.
