LA RECENSIONE

 . . . if life gives you magic, don't refuse it, fool. . .  

. . . in the uncertain, dark, and unhappy course of our lives, we discover that the soul can be nourished, that the spirit exists, and it is hungry. . . 

. . . music marks the existence of men. . . music elevates. . . 

. . . virtuosity for its own sake is boring as well as useless. . . 

. . . I prefer silence to banality. . . 

. . . Keith Jarrett changed my life. . . 

. . . he changed my very perception of music. . . 

. . . I've loved much, and I don't renounce any of it. . . 

. . . but Jarrett is the gift, he is the ray of sunshine. . . 

. . . the energy, the effort aimed at composition, the sudden and inspired flow, all this is Jarrett in solo piano concerts, and I love them unconditionally. . . 

. . . in many of them you can sense the struggle, the exhausting search for the right note. . . all through a superhuman effort. . . and you can feel it. . .

. . . in the solo piano concert, Bregenz, particularly inspired, there is space exclusively for magic, for melody. . . 

. . . a Keith Jarrett at the peak of his own expressive/emotional "tension", evidenced by the continuous vocal "intonations," and the constant pounding on the stage. . .  

. . . there are no drops in tension, there are no dull moments, you rejoice for the entire composition (divided into 4 parts), note after note. . .

 . . . the notes fill the air, they envelop me, caress my skin, my mind. . . they slowly make their way, reach the heart, and gently settle there. . . the lightest tears veil my eyes, even today I have lived. . .

 . . . if you love the piano, if you love Jarrett-style Jazz, if you seek ecstasy, listen to this album. . .

 . . . if you seek joy, if you need to nourish your spirit, this work is for you. . .

 . . . if beauty ever existed somewhere, here it is, it is in this concert. . .

 . . . if you are looking for a didactic and technical review, then this is not the right one. . .
