Dave Brubeck is a true jazz icon. For the last six decades, jazz legend Dave Brubeck has distinguished himself as both a composer and a pianist. In 1958, Brubeck, along with drummer Joe Morello, double bassist Eugene Wright, and alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, captured the world's attention with the landmark album Time Out, which featured the now famous time signature explorations "Take Five" and "Blue Rondo a la Turk." Since that time, Brubeck has toured the world extensively, produced an extraordinary body of noted jazz recordings, and devoted himself to composition within both jazz and classical idioms. Today, at 88, Brubeck maintains an active concert and festival schedule with his current quartet featuring Bobby Militello, alto sax; Michael Moore, bass; and Randy Jones, drums. Join us for an extraordinary evening with a jazz master.
Let's start the celebration early! This performance (along with the Martha Graham Dance Company presentation) is a special engagement leading up to the 25th anniversary of the Friends of Convocations, which will be formally observed in the 2010-2011 season.
...a musician who always has delighted in crossing musical boundaries that lesser artists fear.
