DAVE BRUBECK. Born in Concord, California, Dave Brubeck comes by his many musical talents honestly. His mother was a classical pianist, his older brother a jazz musician, his father a cattleman. He completed his musical studies with Darius Milhaud, who encouraged young Brubeck to follow his own inclination toward jazz. Success was not instant. It was not until1951 that the Quartet was formed, and jazz went to college. In the next seventeen years, the Brubeck Quartet became the most successful ensemble of its kind. In 1968 the Quartet was disbanded so that Brubeck could concentrate on composition. He now plays some 50 concerts a year (instead of the former 250) with the new Dave Brubeck Trio. Roughly half of these concerts feature Gerry Mulligan, the other half enlisting chorus and orchestra in performances of The Light in the Wilderness or The Gates of Justice.
