Dave Brubeck's "Time Out": A Jazz Landmark - An Evening with Gil Harel

Join us for a fascinating evening of music history as musicologist Gil Harel delves into one of jazz’s most groundbreaking and best-loved recordings: Dave Brubeck’s 1959 album Time Out.

Among the many seminal jazz records released in 1959, Time Out stands apart for its bold exploration of unusual time signatures and metrical patterns. Recorded by the Dave Brubeck Quartet at Columbia’s famed 30th Street Studio in New York City, the album was inspired in part by the group’s recent State Department-sponsored tour abroad, where they encountered a rich variety of musical traditions and rhythmic structures.
