Dave Brubeck: Seriously Brubeck, Selections from
(Original Music by Dave Brubeck)
ed. Gail Lew and John Salmon
- Piano Solos

The seven pieces in this volume are excerpted from two ballet suites composed by Dave Brubeck. Struttin' and Doing the Charleston are from the four-movement set Glances. Also included are five selections from Points on Jazz: Prelude * Scherzo * Rag * Waltz * A la Turk. Brubeck himself describes Glances as my most Milhaud-inspired work, a tribute to the French composer with whom Dave studied composition. Points on Jazz was commissioned by the American Ballet Theatre and the cover of this incredible collection features Dave at the piano surrounded by the dancers.
