The music of legendary musician and composer Dave Brubeck will fill the halls of Rice University’s Stude Concert Hall this weekend with special guests — his children — during. Houston Chamber Choir will present the concert in partnership with Lago Vista Community Concerts Foundation, the Brubeck Brothers Quartet, the Paul English Quartet and many other fine musicians.
Spearheaded by producer and Rice University Professor of Composition and Theory Arthur Gottschalk, the program features the Houston Chamber Choir alongside a 19-piece orchestra with Chris and Dan Brubeck, the Paul English Quartets and noted Houston musicians Paul English and Horace Alexander Young. “In 1970, when I attended the University of Michigan, that's also the year that Chris enrolled at the same school,” Gottschalk detailed. “We were both trombone players, and we were both playing in the university jazz program.”
“We are honored to have been asked to participate in this concert which will also result in a recording. We all know Dave Brubeck’s great instrumental works like ‘Take Five’ and ‘Blue Rondo à la Turk,’ but lyrics to these pieces, and that adds to the excitement and complexity,” Simpson said.
