"Keith Jarrett has commented that his best performances were during the times where he had the least amount of preconception of what he was going to play at the next moment. An apocryphal account of one such performance had Jarrett staring at the piano for several minutes without playing. As the audience grew increasingly uncomfortable, one member shouted to Jarrett, 'D sharp!', to which the pianist responded, 'Thank you!', and launched into an improvisation at speed."
