In 1959, he integrated asymmetric meter into the album Take Five. With a unique time signature (5/4), the title song became a standard bearer for jazz crossover. Other compositions like “Blue Rondo A La Turk” (written in 9/8) are further examples of the unconventional use of time signatures.

  • Evaluation of the Work of Jazz Pianist/Composer Dave Brubeck
    AN EVALUATION OF THE WORK OF JAZZ PIANIST/COMPOSER DAVE BRUBECK BY DANNY RONALD ZIRPOLI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1990 Copyright 1990 by Danny Ronald Zirpoli , ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This writer is greatly appreciative of the valuable help given by many people. A very special thanks and acknowledgement are extended to my chairman, mentor, advisor, and friend, Dr. David Z. Kushner whose belief in my ability gave me the confidence to see this project to completion. Gratitude is extended to my other committee members Dr. S. Philip Kniseley, Professor John S. Kitts, Dr. Jeff A. Hurt, and Dr. Forrest W. Parkay. Their help and encouragement were most appreciated. I would also like to thank Mrs. Robena Eng-Cornwell Associate University Librarian, University of Florida, for her valuable assistance. This study would have been difficult to complete without the help of Mrs. Juliet Gerlin. She not only provided valuable support and source materials but also arranged for a personal interview with Dave Brubeck. To my mother, Margaret Zirpoli, mother-in-law, Eileen Cywinski, and father-in-law, John Cywinski, go my heartfelt thanks. Their faith and confidence in me were unsurpassed. I will forever be indebted to my wife for her help and moral support during this time. She truly helped me through my darkest hours. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS iii LIST OF FIGURES vi ABSTRACT xii CHAPTERS I INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM STATEMENT 1 II METHODOLOGY AND MATERIALS 5 III REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE 11 IV BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH 18 V INFLUENCES AND STYLISTIC APPROACHES 37 Early Influences 3 7 Darius Milhaud Influence 56 Compositional Approach Polyrhythms and Polytonality 58 Influence of European Classical Composers Integration of Classical and Jazz Elements 67 Jazz Choral Compositions 80 Orchestral Genre — Elementals 88 Programmatic Inspiration — Keyboard Works.

  • Marking Time and Sounding Difference: Brubeck, Temporality and Modernity
    Popular Music (2010) Volume 29/3. Copyright © Cambridge University Press 2010, pp. 351–371 doi:10.1017/S0261143010000243 Marking time and sounding difference: Brubeck, temporality and modernity ANDY BIRTWISTLE Department of Media, Canterbury Christ Church University, Canterbury CT2 7HD, UK E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In critical writing on the music of Dave Brubeck, little attention has been paid to the use of poly- rhythm, despite the fact that this has been central to Brubeck’s approach to jazz since the late 1940s. Focusing on work recorded by the ‘classic’ Dave Brubeck Quartet, the article aims to re-evalu- ate Brubeck’s use of polyrhythm by situating it within a cultural history of modernity, rather than the established discourses of jazz musicology. The article revisits the early 1960s to reconstruct the context provided for the music not only by articles printed in the music press, but also by news stories and features run in the popular press, and by the visual signifiers that coalesce around Brubeck. Articulated through the key tropes of modernity and difference, the press’s construction of Brubeck during this period signals the broad cultural context of Modernism as an alternative frame within which his musical practice might be usefully situated. The article explores how two key cultural arte- facts emerging from this context – Brubeck’s Oakland home, and the Miró canvas featured on the cover of the album Time Further Out – might serve to provide a productive means by which to re-evaluate the radical potential of Brubeck’s polyrhythm. Introduction I wanted to do things polyrhythmically because I thought that jazz was much too tame.
