The Dave Brubeck Quartet revolutionized jazz and the wider world of music with their daring compositions and timing. They pushed the envelope and changed what was expected of jazz music. Our two discs are contrasting examples of Brubeck’s brilliance; one appropriates well known tracks and makes them their own, while the other creates a whole new style through original composition. Above all perhaps, in the words of All Music Guide, Brubeck ‘proved that creative jazz and popular success can go together’.
