skirmish was with a totally mute 5600 public ad dress system erie echoes skip ping around grace ball the metallic tatoo of feet on steel grandstands an utterly inexcus able interruption by our audio visual technician to bark a bel ligerent no smoking announce ment all of these tried desper ately to eclipse mr brubeck's music but there was just too much music to eclipse a crowd of over 500 greeted the group and what a crowd it was their caterwauling go-go-go ing would have done justice to a roman gladiator or the brooklyn dodgers but hardly to the thoughtful tapes tries of the brubeck quartet we're unceasingy amazed by this group dave's rich block chords his unflaggingly fertile mind that revi talizes the most tired ballad paul desmond's alto which never suffers by comparison desmond's tech nique conception and feeling are a remarkable parlay and far more re markabe is the telepathic interplay the counterpoint between alto and piano this counterpoint of course must be heard and not written about its proximity to bach is almost too obvious to mention and the facility with which it's handled by the brubeck group is equally obvious in the listen ing as always dave's choice of tunes was admirable to soothe the savage beasts he martialed the light artil lery of lloyd davis fine bongos on body and soul the thrilling inex horable progression of brubeck chords gave the way you look to night an inner light all the other rhythm tunes take the a train me and my shadow let's fall in love sombedoy loves me and this oan't be love delighted the audience and rightfully so for us though the high points of the evening were stardust and alice in wonderland to say that dave and paul desmond build on the first ballad is an understatement with a first recognizable chorus as a springboard the group conjures up its own lovely melodies above and beyond the call of hoagy car michael in alice dave's bell-like chords establish a mood of restraint and delicacy which is never broken by desmond's alto musings understatement and restraint perhaps are the keynote to the group's appeal whether it be understatement in dave's melod ic background for a desmond solo or restraint in the swinging second chorus of let's fall in love this quartet leaves the lis tener hungry for more mr bru beck and his friends played a lot of music friday night but they implied that there was a lot more to be played in the future for all of the audience it was a highy exciting two hours for some encouragingly it was highly provo cative too volume 64 — number 45 class elections two referenda may 7 and
