In a 2020 interview, Parker stated that the live tracks were recorded at his first solo performance. Although he originally objected to the idea of doing a solo recording, he relented when he realized that it could involve a dialogue with his instrument, rather than with another "mind." When asked about the use of the term "aerobatics" for track titles, he responded: "What's in a name? It has a quality which either speaks to the listener or not. It is a poetic conceit." (en)
