The first time was in lima, that i heard Brandenburg Gate.... that was in the middle 50's... later on, when I was stationed in Germany, when to Berlin but could only see the gate from afar. It was in 2014 that finally was able to see and walked around this impressive monument. In my mined Dave melody play on and on, the violins part.
The section around 13:35 when the piano and saxophone just play with each others lines, reminds me of the way solo instruments would have been handled in baroque and classical music. Brilliant stuff.
excuse me, 16 year olds like myself are still playing this song at gigs, bebop licks, altered scale and all, mind you we're not all exactly a part of the so called "stupid" millennial generation.
David Cheon You're part of a minority. Today's youth mostly call dubstep, rave or other bunch of computer programming based genres as a "masterpiece". My complaint is aimed to most of the youngsters.
Good for you, David! I think we may, in fact, be seeing a jazz renaissance. I'm hopeful, anyway. There are some brilliant and very inspiring millennials out there, for sure. Hooray for art, and keep doing what you're doing. ;)
Gorgeous arrangement of a beautiful tune. Brubeck was a superb composer. However, I find his piano playing rather clunky. Paul Desmond's soloing is perfect.
OrignalMustaphaToke well it’s an orchestra playing the intro and then the Dave Brubeck Quartet joins in for the tune. 4 instruments featuring an entire orchestra consisting of MANY instruments
