This is such a fantastic piece on the Koln Concert. The bit about Jarret forgetting what he was doing when everything went wrong is lowkey one of the most underrated insights into creative flow. I've had similar moments where constraints forced me to improvise in ways i never would have otherwise and those ended up being my best work. The fact that Vera Brandes was only 17 and still managed to pull off convincing him is wild.

Oooh, intriguing story, Beth. Had never heard of this (or Jarret)
