| | | | | Description : | Brilliant composer James Grigsby has revived his MTG group as a 14 piece 'little big band', including Emily Hay-flute & vocals, Eric Johnson-bassoon, Vinny Golia & Lynn Johnston-saxes & clarinets, Joseph Berardi-drums, Dave Kerman-percussion & others on trumpet, trombones, piano & synthesizer, guitar, mallett percussion & contrabass! The compositions the band perform range from a short, almost pop [although HEAVILY contrapuntal] ditty to longer works which stylistically mix classical elements with jazz-stylings & solos to a massive work that features a graphic score, improvisation, as well as after the fact studio manipulations.
