Facing You is Keith Jarrett's very first recording on ECM and features eight solo piano pieces recorded in the studio in Oslo on November 10, 1971.

"Facing You is one of the most important recordings in contemporary jazz for several reasons, aside from being beautifully conceived and executed by pianist Keith Jarrett. It is a hallmark recording of solo piano in any discipline, a signature piece in the early ECM label discography, a distinct departure from mainstream jazz, a breakthrough for Jarrett, and a studio prelude for his most famous solo project to follow, The Köln Concert". - AllMusic
