Manifesto, the debut recording by Dan Berg and the Gestalt, introduces a major new voice to the world of contemporary music, one consciously changing the manner in which modern sounds are created and heard. A native of Philadelphia, the young keyboardist/composer graduated from Hampshire College where he studied under multi-instrumentalist Marty Erhlich. He is now a current resident of Greenpoint, Brooklyn, where he has continued to develop his own unique brand of music. Although his compositions are, at heart, informed by his knowledge and experience as a jazz pianist, they draw from many different sources and styles -- from jazz to rock to classical and world musics. The overall product strikes a smooth balance between groove and art, visceral and cerebral, the popular and the esoteric.
