I’m so sad to learn of the passing of the great Keith Tippett. We had just been talking about him here. I had bought the wonderful ‘Mujician III’ for myself as a birthday present. I feel lucky to have fond memories of chatting to him and to have heard him play. A great loss.

Very depressing news at this moment in time, I’m so sorry to hear/read this. Keith Tippett was not only a great musician, but a warm person who happily chatted with a young (ignorant) art/music student for several hours after a Ninesense concert. Goodby Keith, I’ll miss you.

Ha muerto Keith Tippett, pianista libre como pocos que me maravilló desde la adolescencia con sus increíbles intervenciones en ‘Lizard’ y ‘Islands’ de King Crimson. Hace poco estuve leyendo la entrevista que le dedicó ‘Wire’, junto a su mujer la gran Julie (Driscoll) Tippett.

Really pained to hear that keyboard great Keith Tippett has died. Played on some of my very favourite records and was, of course, a huge influence on David Bowie’s Aladdin Sane. RIP Keith.

Devasted to learn that pianist & composer Keith Tippett has died. A unique voice, his work conjured elemental forces, stirred passions & burned with heartfelt lyricism.

Dnes v noci přišla smutná zpráva. Definitivně nás opustil Keith Tippett. Klavírista, skladatel a velký mág současné britské experimentální a jazzové scény je v Česku znám coby člen progrockových King Crimson v době nahrávání alba In The Wake Of Poseidon.

I’m utterly distraught to hear that Keith Tippett has died. Such a lovely man as well as a great, great English composer, bandleader and pianist — one of our very finest, so creative and open-minded and pure in musical spirit. Profoundest condolences to Julie.

RIP Keith Tippett; we had him every friday afternoon for improvisation classes at RWCMD, followed by his large ensemble. He had the same stories on rotation during those classes, but they were absolute gold. Monster musician and story teller.
