You have probably heard of Keith Jarrett – an amazing Jazz player. But did you know he has an equally talented brother?!? I didn’t either. I met Chris online recently and checked out his 16+ CDs. His genre is more modern and classical. His technique is pyrotechnic and he has an avant-garde approach that is refreshing. He now lives in and is married to concert pianist Martina Cukrov Jarrett. Chris Jarrett was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 1956 and grew up in the Appalachian Mountains to the east. He never doubted that he would become a composer, but things really clicked when he met his future and most important piano teacher, Vincenz Ruzicka. He went to the University of Oldenburg, first as a student, then as a teacher. At first, he composed smaller political piano works, but since then, Chris has written film music, symphonic ballets, choral dramas, operas, oratorios, as well as a huge library of solo piano music. His largest project to date comprises about 300 pages of "16 English Songs" to texts by great poets such as Dryden Donne, Wordsworth, Pope, Burns, Shelley, Fried, Eliot, Alvarez, Blake and others. Chris has toured all over the world including Ukraine, Tunisia, North Africa, Poland, Serbia, , Canada, Austria, Croatia, Italy, Australia, Singapore, and Indonesia. Earlier this year he toured in the US, including Akron, Dallas, New York City, and Solebury, Pennsylvania.
