Details: For their fifth album, German trumpeter Julian and pianist Roman Wasserfuhr are in Brooklyn. If Brooklyn were not one of the five boroughs of New York City, its 2.6 million inhabitants would make it the fourth largest city in the United States. And the secret is out: Manhattan may have the establishment institutions like Lincoln Center, but the real action is in Brooklyn, with an abundance of creativity being generated by musicians from the Wasserfuhr brothers generation, working in apartments, lofts, bars, clubs, and studios. Very little had been agreed or set down in advance when Julian and Roman arrived at the studio to meet the top-drawer American players. They had brought the sheet music of some pieces with them, but the guiding principle was to see what would transpire and to let things happen. Roman begins the final performance on the record just as he begins the first: with a motif expressed in his pianism that allows Julian and the band to slip into a rapid and revealing up tempo waltz; closing out the recording as they began, and in a characteristic manner of what has become a tradition in Brooklyn and beyond: new ideas and the artists who bring them.
