Marie Carmen Koppel is mostly known as a great gospel and soul singer, but on this album she debuts as a jazz singer. In the fall of 2010, the two Koppels, Benjamin and Marie, travelled to Brooklyn for a recording with three top musicians of New York. These first 11 tracks are mostly composed by Benjamin, but also by Kenny Werner, Chris Potter and Dan Hemmer/Marie Carmen Koppel, while all the lyrics are the work of Marie. The last track, When I Fall in Love, is by Victor Young (music) and Edward Heyman (lyrics). Brooklyn Jazz Session is about the everyday life, about being divorced, missing your daughter when she is at her fathers and about taking a day off.
