Commissioned by the Northern Michigan University Jazz Ensemble, this jubilant tone poem portrays the Great Northern Railway that ran for a century from the Great Lakes to the Pacific Ocean. Beginning quietly in the distance, the chart builds steadily through a series of colorful variations and roars by at full throttle five minutes later. The fast swing train groove drops a beat every four measures (4-4-4-3) from start to finish. This is truly a marvel of modern jazz ensemble writing for proficient groups by one of the nation's most innovative composers. Duration 6:00.

Leave it to the creative mind of Kris Berg to come up with a swingin' jazz piece inspired by the Ferde Grofé composition On the Trail from the Grand Canyon Suite! After a short Alto Sax solo there is a cool unison line for the band with just light accompaniment from the Drums.
