Chris and Dan Brubeck have been making music together practically all their lives. Drummer Dan and bassist, trombonist, and composer Chris cut their first record together in 1966, nearly a half century ago. They’ve subsequently played a variety of styles in a number of different groups, as well as with their father, jazz giant Dave Brubeck, and with their own Brubeck Brothers Quartet. With Dan and Chris as the foundation, guitarist Mike DeMicco and pianist Chuck Lamb complete this dynamic quartet. They perform at concert series, colleges, and jazz festivals across North America and Europe, including the Newport, Detroit, Montreal, Playboy/Hollywood Bowl, and Monterey Jazz Festivals.

Jesse Cook never planned to become a musician. “If you had asked me at age 22, I would have said that I would never, never make music for the public,” he said. “I would have told you that the public is much too fickle; they may love you one minute and forget you the next. Well, it turns out I did the thing I said I’d never do, and somehow, it’s worked out.”

The Squirrel Nut Zippers began their musical journey in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in the mid 1990’s, as a musician’s escape from the cookie cutter world of modern rock radio at the time. Jimbo Mathus along with wife Katherine Whalen and drummer Chris Phillips formed the band as a casual musical foray playing for friends and family around town. It wasn’t long before the band (which had grown in size) developed a reputation for pioneering a quirky mix of jazz chords, folk music, and punk rock leanings and attracted a national audience.

Acoustic Alchemy does not release albums very often. The release of 33 1/3 in 2018 was an event, and the new work made it to the Top Ten of Billboard’s Jazz Album charts. The delay was the result of some personal issues and also the belief that you only write an album when you have something to say. “We’re quite lucky in that respect,” says the band’s Miles Gilderdale. “We don’t have a record label breathing down our necks, telling us we need to put out something every year.” Adds Greg Carmichael, “For us, the only time we even consider going into the studio is when we have some material that we really believe in.”

They only need one name: Ella, Judy, Bing, Dean, Peggy. These were the artists who brought the music of Gershwin, Ellington, Porter, and Berlin to life. Now, in a Jazz at Lincoln Center Presents program Sing and Swing: Our American Songbook with Bria Skonberg and Benny Benack III, the virtuoso trumpeters and vocalists relive and recreate some of the classic pairings in jazz and popular song.

Our second Masterworks celebrates the impact of one of America’s greatest exports: Jazz. It swept across the Atlantic during the roaring 20s and was the perfect soundtrack to a freewheeling, carefree decade. Paris became the European epicenter of le jazz hot, and composers flocked there eager to see and hear the hottest musical trend. Four masterpieces attest to the influence of Jazz: From Milhaud’s quirky, jaunty score conceived as a soundtrack for a Chaplin comedy; Ravel’s virtuoso, glittering Piano Concerto; the colorful, evocative Jazz Suite by Martinu; and Gershwin’s wide-eyed Parisian musical impression—complete with honking taxi horns.
