Legendary jazz bass player Charlie Haden and pianist Brad Mehldau joined forces back in November 2007 to perform together at the Christuskirche church in Mannheim, resulting in the live recording Long Ago and Far Away. After 11 years, the recording was released globally on October 26 via Impulse! Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. n 2007, the director of the Enjoy Jazz Festival in Heidelberg, Germany invited the two musicians to perform together. They had never before performed in duo, so they both eagerly agreed. The concert took place in a beautiful church, the Christuskirche, in Mannheim.
