In a career profoundly influenced by Jarrett’s genius, Ford captures the same seamless blend of jazz improvisation and classical discipline.
“From the first note, it was clear that Ford was not merely playing the piano; he was telling a story, channeling the spirit of Jarrett while infusing his own unique flair.” (Winnie Wen. Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2024).
Ford crafts a musical experience that is not only faithful to the original but refreshingly contemporary; not just a re-enactment but a living tribute; an unforgettable celebration of the fusion of jazz and classical music. Köln Concert 50 honours the past while pushing the boundaries of what a piano performance can be, bringing fresh vitality to a timeless masterpiece.
“Ford’s effortless command of the piano was evident throughout the performance as he navigated the intricate passages with a grace that belied the complexity of the music.” (Winnie Wen. Performance China. August 2024).
