Supergroup delves into the legacy of Jarrett’s influential quartet

Craig Taborn, Chris Potter and The Bad Plus: big names who have each made their mark on contemporary jazz. They share a passion for the folk-inspired melodies and idiosyncratic grooves of Keith Jarrett’s American Quartet, active in the mid-seventies. Now, these four contemporaries are taking a fresh look at the oeuvre that moulded their musical paths.

Pianist Keith Jarrett shot to global stardom with his imaginative solo improvisations, immortalized on the highly successful album The Köln Concert. Around that time, he released a series of influential albums with his quartet featuring Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden and Paul Motian. Today, a new generation of jazz titans - piano adventurer Craig Taborn, tenor sax virtuoso Chris Potter, and The Bad Plus’s versatile rhythm section - breathe new life into their work.
