Few jazz musicians are recognized as internationally and across so many genres as Dave Brubeck. The first jazz musician to be featured on Time magazine, he has been a fixture and a pioneer of the jazz music scene for the past fifty years now. But nothing is old or unhip about this veteran composer. Featuring both the classic tunes and his newest works, The Dave Brubeck Quartet entertains their fans with the energy and eloquence of true artists who love their job. With Dave Brubeck on piano, the talented Bobby Militello alternating between alto sax and flute, the solid Michael Moore on bass, and the always-captivating Randy Jones on drums, no song goes wrong and every piece is a musical journey. Perhaps few jazz bands achieve such a complex and entertaining range of music so consistently as The Dave Brubeck Quartet.

The result is over 16 hours of footage, priceless anecdotes and a truly intimate portrait of the man and the musician. •Dave on Paul Desmond and the Quartet •Dave on the Creative Process •Dave on the Rocky Road to Success •Dave on the Racial Barrier •Dave on Playing with his Sons •Dave on the Critics Special Features At home with Dave and Iola Brubeck."Unsquare Dance" with the London Symphony OrchestraDave talks about the art of creativity."In Your Own Sweet Way" rehearsal with Brubeck and sons.Dave and Iola talk about the process of collaboration."Take Five" excerpt from University of the Pacific concert.Backstage in Berlin, Germany. Initially aired on PBS, Rediscovering Brubeck offers a warm retrospective of Dave Brubeck's influential and groundbreaking career as one of jazz music's most popular pianists and composers. From Brubeck's early dreams of being a cowboy to the classical music education that led him to pioneer innovative rhythms in his compositions, this film summarizes Brubeck's extraordinary career through archival footage, photographs, and home movies, while simultaneously maintaining a clear focus on Brubeck's current activities as an actively admired jazz musician. Having just turned octogenarian at the time of filming, Brubeck is revealed as a lastingly vibrant, funny, and insightful artist in a series of thoughtful interviews (many filmed at Brubeck's home with his wife and sometimes collaborator, Iola Brubeck, by his side). As this is the first feature-length documentary on Brubeck, his fans, and all fans of jazz, are hereby called to take five and settle in with this rewarding portrayal of a true living (and playing) legend of jazz music. A generous selection of special features on the disc includes additional excerpts from live performances, as well as not-to-be-missed footage of Brubeck in rehearsal with his four sons, all musicians themselves.
