Renowned for his solo free-form improvisational concerts, Jarrett has earned recognition as one of the most creative musicians of our time. More than 12 years ago he recruited Peacock and DeJohnette into this exquisitely empathetic ensemble with the sole intention of performing "standards." The trio has recorded 11 albums for ECM, including "Bye Bye Blackbird," dedicated to the late Miles Davis, with whom all three musicians performed at key periods in their careers. Critics have raved about the incomparable freshness and artistry the trio brings to the classic American songbook. In the words of Stereophile, "when it comes to Keith Jarrett's Standards Trio, I've learned to expect miracles." Those miracles manifest themselves at the Masonic on the second night of the San Francisco Jazz Festival.
