the lineup includes Keith Jarrett on piano, soprano saxophone, flute, percussion; Charlie Haden on double bass; and Paul Motian on drums, percussion.

ECM’s Manfred Eicher returned to the original tapes recorded 42 years later and remixed the music in Oslo in July 2014, along with Jan Erik Kongshaug.
