Our Secret World

''Our Secret World'' is Kurt Rosenwinkel's ninth album as a band leader. It is a collaboration with the Orchestra de Jazz Matosinhos from Portugal. The project was begun in 2007 and was performed in 2008. Recording took place over three days in September 2009. This was preceded by three days of twelve-hour rehearsals.

All of the selections are by Rosenwinkel and have been a part of his songbook since the 1990s. "Dream of the Old" appeared on ''The Enemies of Energy''. "Path of the Heart", "Zhivago", and "Use of Light" appeared on '' The Next Step''. "Our Secret World" was on '' Heartcore''. "The Cloister" was on '' Deep Song''. "Turns", though an old composition, debuts on this album.
