Keith Jarrett - Interview + Speech at NEA Jazz Masters Awards 2014

Excerpt from NEA Jazz Masters Awards Ceremony & Concert on Jan 13, 2014 Source: Keith Jarrett is giving an acceptance speech that is about his definition of music and his opinion of what the most important for a musician in life is. I found that his idea of “free yourself, but I don’t believe that there is a specific fixed way“ is very similar idea of 大道無門(The Great Way(Tao) is gateless) in Buddhism, even though he has said that he’s religiously influenced by George Gurdjieff, an esoteric Christian mystic teacher.
