This 'Rondo' is an entirely different take, however. They close out their set with the tricky 9/8 vehicle 'Blue Rondo a la Turk,' another famous number introduced by Brubeck's classic quartet on 1959's Time Out.

The full band reunites for a rousing rendition of Brubeck's most famous tune, 'Take Five,' with Dan offering a decidedly more energetic drum solo than Joe Morello's famous drum solo from the 1959 original.īrubeck's blues-drenched piano intro leads into an extended meditation on the blues that Desmond, Darius, Dan and Chris expound on with individual solos. Desmond and Brubeck unite for a jaunty duet on 'These Foolish Things' and a poignant rendition of 'For All We Know.' Desmond's signature dry martini alto sound is brilliantly showcased here. 'It's a Raggy Waltz' is a funky, off-kilter dance number that originally appeared on 1961's Time Further Out and was later reconfigured on 1973's Brother, the Great Spirit Made Us All. 'Brandenburg Gate,' from Two Generations of Brubeck, is an elegant exercise in counterpoint with Brubeck and longtime partner Desmond weaving lyrical lines in and out of each other. With Dan Brubeck underscoring the proceedings with some briskly swinging brushwork, Dave is featured on a forceful solo that pushes the envelope both rhythmically and harmonically.

The patriarch next jumps on the sprightly waltz 'Someday My Prince Will Come,' originally written for the 1937 Walt Disney animated movie Snow White and reconfigured as a jazz waltz by Brubeck on 1957's Dave Digs Disney. Dan also contributes an extended drum solo here. Darius, on Fender Rhodes electric piano, exchanges some sparkling statements with father Dave on piano while brothers Dan and Chris hold down the churning groove. The Brubecks open with a driving rendition of 'Unsquare Dance,' a 7/8 number that originally appeared on 1961's Time Further Out.

They performed material from both albums at this Jappearance at Carnegie Hall for the Newport Jazz Festival in New York. They released their eponymous debut on Atlantic in 1973 and followed up with 1974's Brother, the Great Spirit Made Us All. The following year, the forward-thinking Brubeck formed his Two Generations of Brubeck band with his Woodstock generation sons Chris, Darius and Dan.
