New Vienna

New Vienna er den fjerde konsertinnspillingen som slippes fra Keith Jarretts siste soloturné i Europa. Den følger etter Munich 2016, Budapest Concert og Bordeaux Concert. Som Jarrett-kjennere vet inneholder hans diskografi allerede en legendariskVienna Concert (innspilt i Wiener Staatsoper). Da han vendte tilbake til den østerrikske hovedstaden i 2016, opptrådte han på et annet historisk sted med levende akustikk – Musikvereins Gylne sal. New Vienna slippes i forbindelse med at Keith Jarrett fyller 80 år.New Vienna is the fourth concert recording to be released from Keith Jarrett’s final European solo tour. It follows Munich 2016, Budapest Concert and Bordeaux Concert. Why New Vienna? As Jarrett aficionados will know, his discography already includes a legendary Vienna Concert (recorded at the Vienna State Opera) whose music, he once claimed, spoke “the language of the flame itself”, after long years of “courting the fire”. Keith Jarrett’s 2016 return to the Austrian capital brought the flames of inspiration to another historic location with lively acoustic properties, the Golden Hall of the Musikverein, where, at the start of the previous century, Schoenberg, Berg and Webern had premiered works that challenged and changed the course of modern music. New Vienna, shaping its new music in the moment, is near-encyclopedic in scope. The album is issued as Keith Jarrett turns 80.
