Keith jarrett trio it could happen to you live tokyo 96


Tokyo '96 is a live album by American pianist Keith Jarrett's "Standards Trio" featuring Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette recorded in concert in March, 1996 at the Bunkamura Orchard Hall in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan and released on the ECM label in 1998. Filmed footage of the concert was originally released as Trio Concert 1996 (by Image Entertainment in VHS and DVD formats).

Contents

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Standards Trio in 2008, ECM Records acquired rights to the filmed performance and released a double-DVD set called Live In Japan 93/96, which featured Trio Concert 1996 and another Trio film, Live at Open Theater East.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell awarded the album 4½ stars and states "the standards trio lives up to its formidable track record of consistency and then some. Jarrett and perennial cohorts Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette are, if anything, even sharper, swinging harder and more attuned to each other than ever".
