Cont to Fullmetal: However, Jens loves classical, formal music and put a lot of love and skill into the Thayer Concert. In addition, the Thayer Symphony is a magnificent Orchestra, led by a master conductor. They put as much love in this as any group could possibly do. Their addition to the concert is like turning an Ansel Adams B&W photo into a color photo, or if you please, they add 3-D to it. Their performance takes nothing away from the Krugers, rather they add elements to the music
"FullMetal", don't sell your music taste short. Remember, Jens wrote all the scores for the Orchestra in this case. We die-hard Kruger fans, who have hear the Krugers in person scores of times, fully appreciate the uncanny ability of these three gentlemen. With three instruments (and a good sound man), they can sound like an orchestra (continued)
This performance isn't available expect through the Thayer Symphony's website and part of the entire performance, which is wonderful, by way. But I wanted the fans to be able to enjoy this one. The Thayer Symphony publishes the full concert free of charge on their site, so I trust that I won't be castigated for making this part accessible.
But I suggest you go to their site and download the full concert, especially if you are, like me, an avid Kruger Brothers fan.
Wonderful performance as expected from one of the finest banjo players ever and my personal favorite. :o)

Saw them live at Banjo 5 and I have been hooked ever since. This may have a symphony orchestra but it still doesn't compare with them live!!
