About the event

The Köln Concert Revisited with Scott Flanigan
A tribute to Keith Jarrett's seminal album with pianist Scott Flanigan.

In January 1975, piano virtuoso Keith Jarrett played in Köln, Germany – a live recording of which became the best-selling solo jazz album of all time, with over four million sales worldwide. To celebrate The Köln Concert’s 50th anniversary, local keyboard maestro Scott Flanigan performs a piano tribute. As with Jarrett’s seminal performance, you can expect passionate improvisations inspired by the mood and the moment.

That the concert got off to the worst possible start helps explain its legendary status. The notoriously perfectionist Jarrett had asked for a grand piano. However, the organisers mistakenly ordered a baby grand that was in poor condition. Moreover, Jarrett arrived exhausted from an epic drive and suffering back pains. On seeing the baby grand he initially refused to play but was eventually persuaded. Despite or perhaps because of so many difficulties, he gave the performance of a lifetime.

Hopefully The Cooler and our (cough) baby grand will be a better experience for Scott.
