M ' t I 1 1 1 JftjOM ' ' 0 displays by Dave Robinson DTH Contributor The hairstyles were longer but the music was little changed Wednesday as the Dave Brubeck Quartet displayed its poll-winning jazz style of 25 years ago. Memorial Hall's "Silver Anniversary Concert" one of many on a long American tour marked the long-awaited reunion of four musicians who helped usher in the "cool" sound of the 50s. The price of admission was "silver" in itself, but Brubeck's inspired piano stylings and Paul Desmond's light, airy alto sax proved it to be a' well-spent $5. Due to contract clauses, it was necessary to present two shows," neither of which filled the hall. One show would have been a sure sellout and would have eased the group's harried tour schedule somewhat. The second show which by all indications closely paralleled the first began with a kind of Desmond sandwich on a "Two Generations of Brubeck" bun. Three trio numbers between Brubeck, drummer son Danny and electric bassist Rick Kilburn found the piano underamplified, the drumwork too busy and distracting and the . bass line too shy. Still, this was our first glimpse at the artistry of Brubeck senior; hunched over his keyboard, the left-hand comps as the right hand flies; the feet start stomping, the body begins to rock, the mouth opens and ten fingers crash into the ivories in anguish. Brubeck, while not having lost the light, "cool" touch of years past, nevertheless plays in a distinctly modern vein with his sons, as evidenced in last year's sell-out "Two Generations" concert here featuring Brubeck with the Darius Brubeck ensemble. The final trio piece, a Latin number in 54 time, came very close to deserving the label "free form," and Brubeck senior cannot be accused of failing to keep up with the times. Back stage he named Chick Corea as his most admired contemporary keyboardsit, and alluded to the influence of his progeny. "I'm influenced by both the good and the bad, but I like a loi of what's going on with the kids, and youth in general." The "meat" of the first half strolled on stage in the form of Paul Desmond. Looking like the secluded businessman next door, Desmond wore his sax like an oversized tie tzzzL.z". - ::irrzzri In the Feature Case Classics Club Selections good hard-bound editions of great books. ?io Old Dooh Corner 1 37 A East Rosemary Street .

From the opening strains of "Blue Dove" it was obvious that these two musicians complement each other wonderfully. Desmond's subdued alto is the perfect inspiration for Brubeck's classical touch, and the result is v ery tasteful jazz. Desmond gently cut off his notes with a slight swing of A community doesn't listen to its artists. They usually get mad at them. It takes something like Watergate to make them listen. Dave Brubeck the head; during his busier moments, his eyebrows carved Spock-like v's into his forehead. We would have gladly paid as much to hear Desmond play "Mickey Mouse"; while his improvisatory ear is well trained harmonically, it is his tone that sends us. Upon learning that electric keyboardist son Darius had the flu, Brubeck sent out an "emergency" call to trombonist-son Chris to fill in at the concert. Chris hopped a plane, and appeared following Desmond in the first half. He might have saved himself the trip. His number a pseudo-free form piece backed by dad, Danny and Kilburn found his ' rombone issuing overtones, frenzied slides and random wanderings. A brief glimpse of straight improvisation collapsed into more noise, culminating in an uninspired cadenza ending on a golly-gosh pedal tone.

Monday, in concert final number of the first half. The stage was full of contradictions as Desmond and Chris harmonized the melody; Desmond soloed beautifully, Brubeck soloed tastefully and the musicians tolerated each other. The second half belonged entirely to the quartet ( Desmond left at one point to allow a couple of trio numbers). Eugene Wright was back behind the upright bass, and a much changed Joe Morello sported a monogrammed drum set. The latter looked for all the world like a beer-guzzling beach bum, with long hair, T-shirt, shades, boots and a dangling pendant. But no beach bum ever played drums like this! In their opening number an updated version of "Swanee River" Brubeck and Morello traded fours, and it was Morello's show. Never cracking a smile, Morello played his set effortlessly, yet theatrically, making lightning quick decisions and spanking his drums into submission. The next two numbers evidenced the old quartet's style of the fifties, including the then-experimental time changes that helped bring Brubeck to the attention of the jazz world. Strains of "Take the A Train" closed out the evening. Brubeck's urgent chords led to a mostly-standing ovation and the inevitable encore demands. Politely, he refused, citing their heavy schedule and, the hour as apologies. presents: -V rS gym, ;f ' xi' re? Am. lUKSJih i inKO em . DpXQJW next to Blimpie's on Rosemary 967 - 8284 HELD-OVER!

Does he lire of his old tunes? "They're never the same,'" said Brubeck, an observation that can be said of ja in general. Still, the group w ill split up again after the tour, "it's gelling out of hand." he said with a smile. Brubeck talked of the diversity of his audiences. "WcNc played concerts where one guy will be dressed in a tux and the girl next to him is in blue jeans." The ages vary as well; he aims at an age group of "Oh. from about ten to SO Unknown to many, Brubeck is politically oriented. After the Kent State incident of years past, he wrote a song entitled "Truth Is Talking" as a protest, only to find it meet with initial public hostility. Oddly, the song was met favorably after Watergate. "A community doesn't listen to its artists." Brubeck laments. "They usually get mad at them. It takes something like Watergate to make them listen " Other protest pieces by Brubeck include "Gales of Justice "As the country slays out of war. all good things will come back. I expect so many good things to happen this year." "This is a good time in my life . . .for the love of doing it. that's why you do those things." Like a true artist. Brubeck keeps right on creating.
