For the 2026 sequel, the trio returned to Klangverket in Gothenburg, a former workshop, and kept the modest upright piano heard on the debut.

The half-minute “Goldberg Cassette Prelude” deliberately imitates damaged tape before the Aria begins, while “Buß und Reu” is the album’s single vocal performance.

The classical side contains only the source pieces used on the album, in album order. The jazz side presents the complete album whenever a dependable copy can be embedded.

The originalsJ.S. Bach · classical source works

The classical player presents each source once: the half-minute cassette prelude and the Goldberg Aria that follows it draw on the same Aria, so one performance of it covers both tracks.
