Jazz, in the inimitable Brubeck manner, will flow from the stage in Memorial Hall at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. Tickets for the first program of the 1965-66 GM Series are available at Graham Memorial Information Desk. Brubeck is currently and has been for some years one of the most sought-after personalities in the world of jazz, and is the world's top record seller in this area. Each member of the Brubeck Quartet has won impressive recognition. . Paul Desmond, alto sax, is considered by most critics to be far and away the world's number one alto saxophone player. Desmond recently won first place in the Down Beat Readers' Poll. Joe Morello, likewise just honored by the Down Beat readers, has won one poll after another for drummers in the last several years. Gene Wright, the newest member of the group, joined the quartet in January, 1958, time for its U. S. State Department tour of the Middle East. An outstanding bass player, Wright has been featured with Count Basie, Cal Tjader and Red Norvo before his association with Brubeck. Brubeck was born in Concord,. Calif., the youngest of three sons. His mother was one of the reading piano teachers in the area, and classical piano literature was such an integral part of young Brubeck's home life thai at the age of five he began improvising themes of his own. His first contact with jazz was through his older brother, and at age 13 he was causing a sensation with local dance bands, playing .such diverse styles as -hillbilly, two-beat and wing. Brubeck continued his music studies through college, and after completing his overseas hitch in the Army during World War II he returned to Oakland, Calif., to resume composition studies with Darius Milhaud at Mills College. At Mills College, Brubeck organized an experimental jazz group known as "The 8," five members of which were students of Darius Mil haud. At a concert of "The 8" jazz impresario Jimmy Lyons first heard Brubeck. After the concert Lyons rushed to Paul Speegle (then NBC program director and now a prominent San Fran cisco newspaper columnist) to make known his discovery of a new jazz stylist. However, NBC pianist Marie Coppin had beaten Lyons to Speegle's office by a few minutes to announce her discovery of a new musician and composer. Both had discovered Dave Brubeck. The rest is jazz history. aic success of the" "Time" series albums, "Time Out " "Time Further Out" and "Countdown Time in Outer Space," is well known. Experiments in polyrhythms have long been 'a Brubeck tradmark. Recently Brubeck has recorded with Leonard Bernstein and The New York Philharmonic, "Dialogues for Jazz Combo and Orchestra," written by his brother, Howard Brubeck.
