Brad and Gene are correct on Jonathan's name.

Many of you will soon receive the new Joe Locke recording on the Italian 
label Jazz Eyes called:

Sticks and Strings

Joe Locke, vibes
Jonathan Kreisberg, electric and acoustic guitars
Jay Anderson, bass
Joe LaBarbera, drums

They are on a month long tour of Germany, Italy and Spain right now.

Best,

Tom

Jae....since this is a name of German origin, I would assume that 
thestandard rule with such names applies:
Whenever you have an "i" and an "e"appearing together, your pronounce 
the SECOND vowel sound.
So Kreisberg should be pronounced, as Brad says, with the first syllable 
rhyming with "ice".
