Album DescriptionAvailable in:
Vienna Concert is a live solo piano album by American pianist Keith Jarrett recorded on July 13, 1991 at the Vienna Staatsoper in Vienna, Austria and released by ECM label in 1992. It has a forty-two-minute arch-like opening movement that exhibits a much greater debt to classical music than Jarrett's earlier improvised concerts.
In its original liner notes Jarrett himself wrote "I have courted the fire for a very long time, and many sparks have flown in the past, but the music on this recording speaks, finally, the language of the flame itself."
User Album Review
The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell awarded the album 4 stars, stating, "Jarrett's exalted judgment is close to the mark; though more Eurocentric than ever, these are his most impressive solo performances since Sun Bear".
