Dave Brubeck, 1920 - 2012

A sad day for the music world. Jazz giant Dave Brubeck left us this morning, a day shy of his 92nd birthday. He left an incredible legacy, and we're proud to have presented him several times over the years. Sending best wishes to Iola and the rest of Dave's family.

Here is a great photo of Dave Brubeck when he performed at the San Francisco Jazz Festival back in 2001.
