Keith Jarrett: Sleeper - reviewECM★★★★★John Fordhamguardian.co.uk, Thursday 12 July 2012 21.53 BSTThis enthralling double album is a previously unreleased concert set from Tokyo in 1979 and features Keith Jarrett's "European quartet" of Jan Garbarek on saxes and flute, fellow Norwegian Jon Christensen on drums and Swedish bassist Palle Danielsson. The band made their last studio album, Belonging, on the same trip ? this one covers many of the same vivid Jarrett originals, and is the better set. But you don't need to know that history to hear the band's exuberance over Jarrett's teasing yet hard-rocking vamps, Garbarek's brusque power and the rhythm section's energy and freedom. Personal Mountains is a 20-minute tour de force of shifting harmonies and chord-punching Latin grooving. Innocence drifts in freefall until it becomes a softly swaying love song. So Tender has the shape of a standard ballad (audibly not to Garbarek's liking) but then loosens. Oasis sounds like an Ornette Coleman lament, and New Dance is probably as close as any of these performers came to playing a mainstream jazz-calypso like Sonny Rollins' famous version of Don't Stop the Carnival. There's lots of free-improv, too, but the range of this remarkable group played a big part in its enduring influence on contemporary jazz.

念願の宿に泊まれました。風情あります。法隆殿から玄関。本館は杉のかわで屋根の葺き替え中でした。家紋が立派です。別館から法師の湯。時々あがる底からの泡の中にじっとしていると、泡が体にそって伝わりなんだかうれしくなり、蔦温泉を思いだしました。長寿の湯と別館。薫山荘でゆっくり休みました。

COLF: Jan Garbarek and The Hilliard Ensemble12 Jul 2012 8pmDavid James countertenor RogersCovey-crump tenorSteven Harrold tenor Gordon Jones baritoneNorwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek and British vocal quartet The Hilliard Ensemble have enjoyed chart-topping success with their enchanting and uplifting collaborations. The Festival is delighted to welcome back these brilliant and ever-popular artists for a unique evening of mesmerising jazz and choral music in St Paul’s Cathedral.Officium NovumThe inspired bringing together of Jan Garbarek and The Hilliard Ensemble has resulted in consistently inventive music making since 1993. Officium Novum, the third album from Garbarek/Hilliard, focuses on music of Armenia based on the adaptations of Komitas Vardapet, pieces which draw upon both medieval sacred music and the bardic tradition of the Caucasus.In this concert performance of Officium Novum the musicians will draw their material largely from the album. However, the programme content and order is never quite decided upon until the performers reach the venue and let the building ? the sixth voice ? speak to them.£5, £10, £15, £25, £35
