"All of the recordings on this set were made between 1963 and 1971. The sessions took place in the home of producer and MPS Records owner Hans Georg Brunner-Schwer in Germany's Black Forest -- Peterson and Brunner-Schwer were friends and the pianist often visited the label owner's home. According to the interview with Brunner-Schwer's son Andreas included in the booklet, Brunner-Schwer asked Peterson to play in front of small, invited, audiences and recorded the performances (an exception is album #4, My Favorite Instrument, a collection of solo performances when no audience was present) [...] a key collection of music from a golden age of Peterson's creativity and musicianship."--Birdland.com.
