“…Hetzler is so good…one of the world’s great trombone players…” -American Record Guide
Critically acclaimed trombonist brings an array of musical ingredients in this sometimes odd, sometimes very musical CD!…at times nearing industrial, at times delivering melodic classical…at most times, yearning for some kind of odd video to be behind! It’s the latest release from Mark Hetzler.
As a member of the Empire Brass Quintet for thirteen years, Mark performed in recital and as a soloist with symphony orchestras world-wide. Mark has since released many recordings on Summit Records, all with their own message and mood, all illustrating his incredible playing and intriguing thought process. His previous release SMT-651, group name: Sinister Resonance, title: They Said… is a multi-genre group that plays a mix of jazz, rock, modern classical, and contemporary improv-based styles. Comfortable on acoustic and electronic instruments, the group creates sounds, textures, and grooves that are beautiful, hip, and at times surreal, all while exploring a dynamic range that runs the gamut from whispering lyricism to thunderous wails. This one begins where that one left off….
