I am seeking suggestions for music similar to (or would be enjoyed by someone who likes) "The Koln Concert" by Keith Jarrett.

The Koln Concert

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

I found a related Yahoo Question with a couple of answers but I was wanting additional ideas.

Klon is amazing.

The thing I love almost as much is The Bull On the Roof. YMMV but try it out.

I'm going to assume that you can find your way around the rest of Keith Jarrett's large discography (I like Bremen/Lausanne from a couple years before Köln).
You might like Brad Meldau's Live in Marciac.

i'm having trouble thinking of things that aren't in the yahoo answer. wasileski's "faithful" is a favourite of mine (i don't know of any releases where he is solo), but you could listen to any of his albums and get a similar impression. in contrast, mehldau has a wider range. his "elegiac cycle" is solo and fairly close to the koln concerts, i guess.

You might try Mingus Plays Piano or Senzo by Abdullah Ibrahim.

Terry Riley piano recital sounds kinda like a Jarrett groove to my ears.
