About Marty Krebs
Marty Krebs' love of the trumpet began in seventh grade. At the University of Wisconsin, Marty majored in Business but had a minor in Music where he earned the classification as one of the ten best college trumpet players in the country. Even while running a multi-million dollar company, Marty never lost his embouchure. He played in Milwaukee's top society orchestra which was heavily booked for weddings,sports shows and featured artists. This gave him the opportunity to back personalities like Lou Rowls,Glenn Campbell,Isaac Hayes, Marion McPartlend. They also played for Milwaukee's Opera and many benefits -- but Marty's fondest memories are for the ten years that he played a weekly Dixieland job at Milwaukee's landmark Jazz spot.
Marty loves playing at Jazz Festivals and on Cruise ships. Over the years he's been in New Orleans, Sacramento,Oregon, Canada and the Carribean.Versatality is Marty's trademark.He played with the Waukesha Symphony and he plays regularly straight ahead jazz, classical, big bands, dance bands & Dixieland using the trumpet, fluegelhorn and/or cornet.
