ALBUM

Jazz Impressions of New York (1964)

This album grew out of music Brubeck wrote for the television show Mr. Broadway, meant to capture the energy of the city while staying distinctly his own. The classic quartet lineup of Paul Desmond, Eugene Wright, and Joe Morello appears throughout, with the music carrying the urgent, polyrhythmic feel typical of Brubeck's work.

Dave Brubeck

Dave Brubeck (1920-2012) was an American jazz pianist and composer from Concord, California. His music leaned into cool jazz, with a particular focus on unusual time signatures and the layering of contrasting rhythms and meters. He worked across jazz, classical, and blues territory, and his Dave Brubeck Quartet became one of the most recognized groups in mid-20th century jazz.
