Book: Keith Jarrett
Chapter: Growing up in Allentown
Blurb:
Growing up in the small city of Allentown in Pennsylvania into a family with very limited
means and intense inner tensions may have been a cause for Keith Jarrett‘s tendency to
roll himself up into a musical cocoon. He was a „Wunderkind“ and trained classically from
the start, turning to jazz in his teens. First important steps in his career took place with Don
Jacoby and Stan Kenton.
