Live and alone, pianist Keith Jarrett improvises music not out of thin air but from the very air around him -- the combined charge of the moment, his surroundings and the compositional drive with which he seeks poetic order in immediacy. The search comes in moving extremes -- melancholy hammering in the lower registers, explosions of bluesy dance -- on this two-CD document of an extraordinary night in flight last fall in New York. But Jarrett hits true transcendence in "The Good America," the first encore and a spontaneous, magnificent anthem without words for a nation choking on argument.
