Keith Jarrett - The Köln Concert Genre_ACOUSTIC / BALLAD The appetizing "Halving the Compass"

The appetizing "Halving the Compass" blends subtle field recording with the kind of piano melodies so beautiful they could be compared to Virginia Astley or Harold Budd

the group Nouvelle Vague have paid tribute to this sumptuous "Frenchy" period clothed in the nihilism of punk

But working with other musicians and hearing the songs go from sad singer/songwriter tunes to arranged pop songs gave me this giddy confidence that I'd never felt before

to a sleepy village and the slowly moving sea (»Tides«) and finally back home to his native Germany where he started reflecting upon his experiences
