Kris Berg & The Metroplexity Big Band - Perspective With Brecker, Marienthal, Malone...Award winning composer and bassist puts his Metroplexity Big Band back together on MAMA Records!..Hotter than EVER!

A Powerful Big Band performance with guests Randy Brecker...Eric Marienthal...Tom Malone...makes for an impressive offering!

- One of the top-selling jazz composer / arrangers in the world, Kris Berg has been enhancing the programs and recordings of jazz ensembles from professionals to middle schools for years. While very popular in the United States, you can find groups from Japan to Germany to England who have enjoyed playing his charts. A composer/ arranger for Belwin Jazz, he has written charts for numerous artists and school programs across the country. His popular series of "chicken" funk tunes have sold tens of thousands of charts.

- An award winning bassist, Kris has appeared or recorded with some of music's all-time greats!

- ...Kris Berg's' Metroplexity Big band...has been a staple in the Dallas, Texas area for decades and as this recording will attest, is at the top of the current big band scene, and at the top of their game these days.

- Featuring the original and creative writing and arranging of Kris Berg on his own original compositions and others, the band showcases world class soloists on every tune. This recording features several 'guest' soloists from LA and NY and once again that distinction between the 'local cats' and the 'all-star' guests is completely blurred since everyone is at their amazing best... - I am so honored to be a small part of this record and when Kris sent me the track of my tune Sponge" I must say I was astounded. Kris had turned the tune upside down and inside out, and it was a real challenge to rise to the level of the track.. and every track is on that level musically with first call production and sound too. So sit down, fasten your seat belt (!) and enjoy "Perspective" from beginning to end." - Randy GENRE: Jazz/Big Band/Large Jazz Ensemble

COMPOSERS: Kris Berg, Randy Brecker, Wayne Shorter, Stockton Helbing, Joe Henderson
