	Brubeck - Family Affair by Seth Rogovoy
		But there's a lot more to "Brubeck," not the least which is that Dave Brubeck is only the best known of a very creative Brubeck clan which includes his wife and songwriting partner, Iola, and his musical sons Darius, Chris, Dan, and Matthew.
		While Dave Brubeck and his sons are perhaps most noted for their work as jazz musicians and composers, one overlooked aspect of their talent is specifically that as songwriters.
		Brubeck's songwriting, which owes as much to Kurt Weill and the Brill Building as it does to his father, has a sad, mournful quality, which von Stade renders without unnecessary sentimentality.

	MusicTeachers.co.uk Online Journal - Reviews - CD review of Bach to Brubeck
		Brubeck is no Mahler, Shostakovich or Milhaud, yet there is something that makes his music equally appealing — his mastery of orchestration, evident on just about every track on the disc, displays such an exotic taste for colour and effect that it sets his music apart from many of his contemporaries.
		Brubeck's own Concerto for Bass Trombone and Orchestra...sparkles with an overpowering sense of humour and feather-bedecked glamour, and has neither of the cynical utterances of William Bolcom nor the introspective cries of the more restrained Aaron Copland.
		Brubeck is evidently a chip-off-the-old-block when it comes to playing jazz, and both written and improvised solos, especially the 'foggy-morning' one of the trombone concerto's second movement or the opening cadenza of the last, are sensitively executed with a superb technical ability and sense of style.

	The Prague Post Online
		Brubeck, shown here in dress rehearsal with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, may be the only person in living memory to improvise a jazz solo on the Rudolfinum stage.
		Dan is now a percussionist with Chris in the Brubeck Brothers Quartet; Darius is a professor of jazz studies at the University of Natal in Durban, South Africa; and Matthew is a fusion and jazz-rock cellist.
		But the elder Brubeck should never be mistaken for a softie, his son says: "There's this other part of him -- tremendous drive and discipline." Dave Brubeck refuses to miss any practice time, going so far as to have a piano keyboard raised so he can play while riding a stationary bicycle.

	Chris Brubeck's Triple Play
		Brubeck’s threesome draws from a broader musical palette than Mayall’s all-blues motif, but the underlying harmonica/acoustic guitar/electric bass configuration is similar.
		Chris was the bassist in the Dave Brubeck Quartet for ten years, and has continued to perform with his dad from time-to-time since.
		Chris is right about Madcat’s harmonica playing (and he throws in some juicy jaws harp too), and Joel Brown is an impeccably impressive guitarist.

	Chico News and Review April 28, 2005
		Brothers Dan and Chris Brubeck, sons of legendary jazz pianist/composer/bandleader Dave Brubeck, were not joined by papa at their recent Chico show (as had been rumored), but that was just fine.
		Chris explained humorously how the song came about: In the Brubeck family they "had accidentally played the bossa nova in 5/4 [instead of 4/4].
		That doesn't happen in most families!" DeMicco's guitar solo on this one was an ear-pleasing mixture of single-line playing and chordal chunking, and I loved watching the calm concentration on his face and the way he occasionally moved his mouth in sync with a particular line he was playing.

		I think our quote-unquote “spiritual paths” are so involved with music, but with hers, she got literally into a Christian spiritual path, and that's the main defining thing in her life, that and her kids.
