One Successful "Moment"
June 19, 2009 Benefit Concert with Dave Brubeck at Infinity Hall
The June 19 “Jazz’d 4 Life - One Moment” Benefit Concert with Dave Brubeck was a huge success in all its many aspects. Dave Brubeck, at 88, continues to inspire and transfix audiences lucky enough to hear him perform live. His quartet, made up of Randy Jones on drums, Michael Moore on bass, and Bobby Militello, sax and flute, fluidly supported each other’s talents in swinging renditions of the Duke, The Basie Band is Back in Town, and a poignant offering of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, among other tunes in the hour set. The evening ended with Brubeck’s signature song Take Five.
The Concert raised funds for...
- Litchfield Jazz Camp scholarship fund
- Joe Beck scholarship fund
- BackCountry Jazz which fosters music education at inner city schools.
- AmeriCares AmeriKids camp
- And more
About The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Dave Brubeck, designated a "Living Legend" by the Library of Congress, continues at age 88 to be one of the most active and popular musicians in the world today. In a career that has spanned more than six decades, his introduction of odd time signatures into jazz, improvised counterpoint, and distinctive harmonies remain hallmarks of a unique musical style unfazed by fad and fashion.Inaugural Event - May 19th 2007
