Notes: Keith Jarrett's exploration of diverse musical traditions has occasionally led him to incorporate elements that resonate with Middle Eastern music. His improvisational style, particularly in his solo piano concerts, sometimes evokes modal scales and rhythmic patterns that share similarities with Middle Eastern musical concepts. While not explicitly focused on Middle Eastern themes, Jarrett's openness to various musical influences and his ability to create expansive, meditative musical landscapes have allowed for moments that may evoke or be inspired by Middle Eastern musical traditions.
