How a total disaster became the world’s best-selling piano album

I remeber being told that the musiciand who came up with Jazz and Boogie did so becuase they needed to play it on whatever piano the venue had and they had no way of knowing what to exepct. So they came up with a style that would work on just about any piano.

A happy accident as Bob Ross would say. Gotta love unforseen circumstances make history. 😊❤

Incredible piece of history and an amazing story behind it we can all learn from – excellent video !

PIANO??? LOTS OF MINDLESS TALK BUT ALMOST NO PIANO OUT OF TUNE ??? DOUBTFULl

If you can go with the flow while listening, this is one off the best pieces of music you'll ever hear.

I’m not a piano player, not even a musician and this was really really interesting – great content – thank you:)

Edit – what happened to the piano?

I attended a Keith Jarrett concert in Santa Barbara where he came out sat down and played straight for about an hour and 45 minutes. There was to be no encore. I considered it an insult for people to think that somewhat could come out again after just having poured their entire soul into that one unbroken performance. He came out and respectfully bowed to the crowd and then left

He pretty much did most of this to himself by cashing in that ticket

Improvisation is what music is and putting your heart into the task makes the difference

What was the name of the piano tuner?

It's astonishing that he hears this music at the same time as the audience.

Nice video but you are wrong about Europe and the development of jazz.
