Danke für den Hinweis auf die Deutschlandfunksendung. Michael Engelbrecht hat bei Flowworker ja bereits seine Fragen an Jakob Bro veröffentlicht, u.a. die Antwort auf diese Frage dürfte Licht ins Dunkel bringen:
Produced in 2014, Taking Turns was in some ways the follow-up of December Song, with Jason Moran instead of Craig, and Andrew Cyrille. At that point in time you had already made Gefion with Manfred, who, as I think, is not present during the Taking Turns recording. (Or was he?) Now, in retrospect, how do you look back on these one or two days of making the album in NYC with a line-up that, in this constellation, never met before or after again. Do the recordings of Taking Turns somehow exist in a bubble, do you see them as an extension of December Song? Or what makes this session stand apart?

Hey man, why don't we make a tune... just playin' the melody, not play the solos...
