“In the Now”, the highly anticipated, 3rd CD release from american trombonist/composer Darren Kramer is available now and features world-renowned saxophonists Michael Brecker, Rick Margitza and Eric Marienthal. This stunning new recording presents Kramer performing 70+min of spectacular Funk, R&B, Jazz, Fusion, Latin & World Music…a “must have” for any trombone fan! All music and lyrics are written and arranged by award-winning composer/trombonist Darren Kramer.

This exciting CD actually begins with a slow crescendo of Kramer's trombone enhanced by his innovative combination of harmon mute and Middle-Eastern multiphonics. Michael Brecker performs like never before on this Darren Kramer masterpiece uniquely classified as “Middle-Eastern Afro-Cuban Flamenco Funk”. “In The Now” is an epic so diverse that it has been divided into four “parts” on this disc…”Part III” being a true gem which features Kramer trading phrases with the masterful improvisation of Brecker.
