Update is a jazz album produced by 44 Records and producer Jacky Wagner, released in 2004. The album was critically acclaimed by magazine as the first initial recording for the Berlin Jazz Orchestra with vocal artist . Jazz artist Jiggs Whigham is featured on this release as both instrumentalist (trombone) and musical director and Steve Gray's arrangements are featured on this recording.

After being founded in 2000, the Berlin Jazz Orchestra had their first release with the label 44 Records in 2004 (Update) produced by Jacky Wagner. Roughly the same program was to be released later in 2007 for You're Everything and also adding two more Steve Gray works to include an original composition and vocal suite. The Update CD release was widely accepted by critics and many details of Steve Gray's arrangements were worked out in the studio.

All tracks written by various composers, all selections arranged and adapted for jazz orchestra by Steve Gray.

talented hopefuls for the Big Band...Marc Secara and his Berlin Jazz Orchestra have already acquired a reputation for being equipped with a big voice and tasteful timbre, he is 'guilty of nothing'... What the band, had a 'so-called' Background to offer...a smooth hit.
