Product Review

Our Secert World is Kurt Rosenwinkel's ninth album as a band leader. It is a collaborative project with Portugal's Orchestra de Jazz Matosinhos (OJM). The project was initiated in 2007, and was first performed in 2008.[1] Recording took place over three days in September, 2009. This was preceded by three days of intense, 12-hour rehearsals.[2] All of the selections are original compositions by Kurt Rosenwinkel, and have been a part of his songbook as early as mid-90s. "Dream of the Old" previously appeared on the Enemies of Energy. "Path of the Heart", "Zhivago", and "Use of Light" first appeared on the Next Step. "Our Secret World" was originally on the studio-creation, Heart core. "The Cloister" was first on Deep Song. "Turns", while an old composition by Kurt, makes it's officially-released debut on this album.
