  • Dave Brubeck's Definitive “Jazzanians”
    Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 9, no. 1, pp. 53-93 (Summer 2013) Dave Brubeck’s Definitive “Jazzanians” Vasil Cvetkov On December 5, 2012, American contemporary music lost one of its most important personalities—pianist and composer Dave Brubeck, who died one day before his 92nd birthday. His death marks the passing of one of the most creative and versatile musicians in American history. Widely known as an innovative jazz musician, Brubeck’s skills in writing and arranging music for classical ensembles went far beyond jazz traditions, making him a subject of interest and investigation for contemporary music researchers. He became an emblematic figure for those, who, like me, received a classical music upbringing and became fascinated by his ability to fuse jazz and classical sources into the specific style that eventually became his trademark. Despite having received a classical education, I have always been attracted by the jazz sound, so that discovering and demonstrating the plenitude of Brubeck's legacy became a natural research goal in my graduate studies. In planning this personal tribute to the late Dave Brubeck, I came to the conclusion that, perhaps, the most eloquent examples of his unique compositional style could be demonstrated around the story of a little tetrachord. Throughout a period of 17 years (1987-2003), it inspired Brubeck to create five important compositions and came to be known, by those who love Brubeck's music, as the “Jazzanians tetrachord.” The compositions varied in form, covering the full spectrum of jazz, classical, and fusion styles. I call these compositions “realizations.” Trying to trace Brubeck’s realizations chronologically through that 17- year period, I first examined published scores but discovered that there were mysterious gaps.

  • BAND BIOGRAPHIES: the Darius Brubeck Quartet
    THE DARIUS BRUBECK QUARTET DARIUS BRUBECK Piano Born in San Francisco, jazz pianist and composer Darius Brubeck grew up in the artistic milieu of his famous father Dave and has enjoyed a lifetime of varied international experience as band leader, composer, teacher and broad- caster. The Brubeck family moved to Connecticut where Darius attended high school and graduated cum laude from Wesleyan University where he studied ethnomusicology and history of religion. Much later he was awarded an M. Phil. by Nottingham University where he was a Visiting Fellow in Music. EARLY CAREER After university Darius led his own groups, played with Don McLean, Larry Coryell and was ushered into the interna- tional jazz scene in the Seventies as a member of Two Generations of Brubeck and The New Brubeck Quartet (Dave, Darius, Chris and Dan Brubeck) under his father’s leadership. He moved to South Africa in 1983, where he initiated the first degree course in Jazz Studies offered by an African university, eventually founding the Centre for Jazz and Popular Music, at the University of KwaZulu-Natal where, as Professor of Jazz Studies, he taught until 2005. He has also served as a Fulbright visiting professor in Romania and Turkey. In South Africa, Darius Brubeck and Afro Cool Concept, which featured some of the country’s premier musicians, played throughout southern Africa, Europe, and the USA. Brubeck also led other groups – representing his university and South Africa – and gave workshops and concerts in Europe and the UK, Turkey, Peru, Thailand and the USA. Us- ing the band name, Gathering Forces for ‘world-music’ oriented concerts, Brubeck collaborated with virtuoso bansuri player, Deepak Ram.
