Somewhere (Keith Jarrett Album)
''Somewhere'' is a live album by Keith Jarrett's "Standards Trio", recorded in Switzerland in July 2009, and released by ECM Records in May 2013. Reception In a review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars, calling it "another sublime chapter in this group's recorded legacy", and commented: "It is almost superfluous to write about Keith Jarrett's three-decades-and-running standards trio with Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette. Given their recorded output, it's easy to discern why they are regarded by many as the greatest living piano trio. They have continued to imbue the standards book with new dimensions of meaning, creating a near symbiotic dialogue in harmonic and rhythmic invention while remaining emotionally resonant." Dave Gelly, writing for The Guardian, stated: "it's startling to realise that they have now been playing together, off and on, for the past 30 years... This set... shows no sign of flagging inspiration. If anything, the interplay between Jarrett, b ...

Description The song is a love duet between the protagonists Tony and Maria, sung while Tony visits Maria on the fire escape outside her apartment. ''West Side Story'' is a modernized adaptation of Shakespeare's ''Romeo and Juliet'' set in 20th-century New York; the scene in which "Tonight" appears is the adaptation of ''Romeo and Juliets famous "balcony scene". History Originally the song for the balcony scene was to have been "One Hand, One Heart".

In the original 1957 Broadway production of ''West Side Story'', "Tonight" was performed by Larry Kert and Carol Lawrence in the role ...
