- **Event Description**: 51st Anniversary of Keith Jarrett’s Köln Concert. Reimagined and performed live by Dorian Ford – a tribute to the legendary 1975 masterpieceAbout this Event  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/35ba4bb0-b927-11f0-a5ac-c5732d107508-rimg-w1200-h546-dc050504-gmir.jpg To mark the 51st anniversary of Keith Jarrett’s iconic improvised Köln Concert, internationally acclaimed jazz pianist Dorian Ford recreates and reimagines this remarkable work.In a career profoundly influenced by Jarrett’s genius, Ford channels the same seamless blend of jazz improvisation and classical discipline. This is not a re-enactment, but a living tribute: Ford weaves passages from Jarrett’s original improvisation with his own spontaneous creation, honouring the spirit of the music while bringing fresh vitality to a timeless masterpiece.In January 2025, on the exact 50th anniversary of the original concert, Dorian performed Köln Concert 50  in Cologne to a sold-out audience, including people who were present at the 1975 performance. The concert received exceptional acclaim for its emotional depth, authenticity, and originality.A year on, Köln Concert 51 continues the legacy, carrying the musical journey into its 51st year.https://youtu.be/bF1uh9nPat8“From the first note, it was clear that Ford was not merely playing the piano; he was telling a story, channelling the spirit of Jarrett while infusing his own unique flair.” Performance China, Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2024“Never before has a concert and its aftermath moved me as much as Köln Concert 50. My head just won’t let go.” Klaus Erich Haun, audience member at both the original 1975 concert and Köln Concert 50, Cologne 2025“Genius… one of the true glories of the Festival this year. Just the best.” Liz Lochhead, Edinburgh Festival 2024“Dorian Ford’s reinterpretation was quite stunning in its execution and intensity. I was totally engrossed from start to finish.” Paula McAdam, Liverpool International Jazz Festival 2025“It is gratifying to see a pianist of Dorian’s calibre present the heart and soul of the music so eloquently and so authentically.” Ronnie Scott  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/36be2720-b927-11f0-bf98-0f75d98e74a6-rimg-w1200-h654-dc070708-gmir.png  The Story Behind the MusicThe original Köln Concert, performed by Keith Jarrett at 11:30pm on 24 January 1975, almost never happened. A rehearsal piano had been placed on stage by mistake; it was out of tune, the pedals stuck, and Jarrett—exhausted, in pain, and ready to cancel—had to be persuaded to perform by 17-year-old promoter Vera Brandes.What followed became musical history: a completely improvised concert that went on to become the bestselling solo piano recording of all time, crossing genres and generations, transforming how the world hears improvised music.   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/3749c550-b927-11f0-91c5-2b5efab58087-rimg-w1200-h690-dc020202-gmir.jpg About Dorian FordLike Jarrett, Dorian Ford began in classical piano before discovering the profound creative possibilities of jazz improvisation.
