Since the early 80's complained about the house ECM in more or less regular intervals (live) recordings from Keith Jarrett Trio. The number is hard to overlook. Here, two types have emerged: Once the conservative standards program (with a quite manageable repertoire) and then the "free play", ie free improvisations of the three musicians with no predefined (standard) themes. "Up For It" is part of the former type. The seven pieces are all from the classical Standards- u bop repertoire. herein, the CD is no different from various prior publications of the trio. It is played like immmer very inspired u. Concentrated. The improvisations have hand u. U walk. Can all serve as teaching pieces. But since we already have exactly the problem these (incidentally, technically excellent) recording. For years, we repeatedly experience the same scheme: Jarrett derives most solo one, the trio presents the topic and it is completed piano-heavy chorus after another. Nothing really happens surprising. The trio has found a language which is that seems to evolve but also unfortunately in no way unique (original). There are more shots follow of this type and the commercial success was very happy for them. Were it not for the desire that this world-class musicians went new ways of dealing with the standard repertoire, so I could pave my entire rooms with CDs of this type. Who wants to hear more definite by the Keith Jarrett Trio, either the 6-CD "Live at the Blue Note" or the double-CD should establish "Whisper Not". A beautiful shot that presents once well known.
