Joe Gilman Trio: Brubeck’s Music

Legendary pianist, composer, and bandleader Dave Brubeck has greatly expanded the rhythmic horizons of jazz during the past 50 years. Still active at 84, Brubeck recently connected with Sacramento-based pianist and educator Joe Gilman, winner of the 2004 Great American Piano Competition and a member of the Capital Jazz Project. This collaboration led to Gilman's recordings Time Again: Brubeck Revisited, featuring bassist Joe Sanders and percussionist Justin Brown, two exceptional young talents on scholarship at the Brubeck Institute at the University of the Pacific. The Joe Gilman Trio makes its Stanford Jazz Festival debut with its rhythmic, harmonic, and swinging interpretations of the brilliant music of Dave Brubeck.
