To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Standards Trio in 2008, ECM Records acquired rights to the filmed performance and released a double-DVD set called Live In Japan 93/96, which featured Trio Concert 1996 and another Trio film, Live at Open Theater East.


March–April 1996 Tour in Japan


Tokyo '96 was recorded on March 30 during a tour in Japan where, according to www.keithjarrett.org, Jarrett's "Standard trio" performed 10 times in 16 days.[4]


Reception


The Allmusic review by Richard S. Ginell awarded the album 4½ stars and states, "the standards trio lives up to its formidable track record of consistency and then some. Jarrett and perennial cohorts Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette are, if anything, even sharper, swinging harder and more attuned to each other than ever".[2]

In November 1998 All About Jazz review by Christopher Hoard noted:

The music here is so startlingly pure in its conception, it sadly harkens to the fact that with few exceptions, little remains today in jazz which attains the force and beauty of those original standards, those moods and statements we find Jarrett continually resurrecting in a new hues and phrasings. Sadly it seems, Jarrett may be last in a line of this centur[y's] greatest musical i[mpresarios]. If you open up to the music revealed on this recording, it indeed seems improbable that any of a younger generation of jazz musicians will even attempt to live up to the standard this group realizes for meeting up with music and an audience in a room. I sincerely hope I'm wrong here[5]

The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote: "The story continues, unstaunchable, maddeningly indulgent and selflessly brilliant by turns. There are moments of pure genius here..."[3]
