Our Take

Keith Jarrett's latest offering, Arbour Zen, is a whimsical journey through the mind of a musical madman. Known for his improvisational prowess, Jarrett takes listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions with this album.

From the haunting melodies of "Arbour Zen" to the upbeat rhythms of "British English," Jarrett showcases his virtuosity on the piano in a way that only he can. The music is unpredictable yet strangely comforting, like a warm hug from a stranger.

The album's quirks and eccentricities are what make it so captivating. Jarrett's playful piano lines are complemented by unexpected accents and twists, keeping listeners on their toes throughout.

While some may find the album's avant-garde tendencies off-putting, those willing to embrace the chaos will be rewarded with a truly unique listening experience. Arbour Zen is a testament to Jarrett's talent and creativity, a testament to his unyielding commitment to pushing boundaries and challenging conventions.

In a world filled with cookie-cutter pop songs and formulaic melodies, Keith Jarrett stands out as a true original. Arbour Zen is a testament to his brilliance, a reminder that true artistry knows no bounds. So sit back, relax, and let Keith Jarrett take you on a musical journey unlike any other.
