The Basement Presents BRENDAN FITZGERALD QUARTET
BRENDAN FITZGERALD QUARTET recreates the world of iconic jazz musician Dave Brubeck, his genius, his relationships, his humanity and popular acclaim. In 1959, Dave Brubeck Quartet's album, "Time Out" became the first platinum jazz disc. Their composition "Take Five", remains the highest selling jazz instrumental of all time.
Brendan narrates the story at the piano together with a projected montage of images from Brubeck's life. Andy Firth, internationally acclaimed saxophonist, performs the music of Paul Desmond, Brubeck's creative ally and sometime adversary. This ensemble comprises four outstanding musicians. Satomi Ohnishi, drums and Quinton Dunne, double bass, join the quartet for this unique event.
