On today's show, we hear the 2nd half of Keith Jarrett's 1981 Munich solo concert, issued on CD for the first time recently by ECM.
However, we begin the show with a darkly-coloured set bookended with two pieces performed by adventurous string quartet Brooklyn Rider, the first "Seven Steps" is the quartet's own composition, the second "Together Into This Unknowable Night" is by American composer and electronic musician/violinist Christopher Tignor, who adds some subtle electronic touches to this piece.
In between there will be a varied musical thread treading over dark landscapes.
