Dave Brubeck in concert at Orchestra Hall. Chicago, Illinois mid 60

Orchestra Hall, a monument to Beaux Arts architecture located just south of Chicago "Miracle Mile", was conceived before the days of equality for the masses. E 'was until then a place to enjoy opera and symphony, and so on. In order to obtain seats in the cheaper wandered through 7 (or was it 10?) Stories of a twisting, narrow, windowless corridor that housed only one way, single file. This property allows you to worship, but the economic positions in question, for fansof seats in the district without the "real" customers. The seats went to the top of the Hall and the slope was sure could build to near 45 degrees in Engineering. This does not sound like a recipe for a good time, but the hall has lived up to its arrogance in some way. The acoustics, for example, were celebrated and legendary. in the 50s, a "jazz concert" as opposed to a "set Jazz is also, especially in thin air, it was a different kind of party and a tribute toincreasing Jazz 'recognition as a "legitimate art" form.

The night of the event was cold and punctuated by a kind of time problem that I and my team (of course) of a Chicago winter is normal. We were there (featuring Paul Desmond), the Dave Brubeck and Gerry Mulligan Quartet seen. And if we are on the roof of the building, we should sit down. We were young enough to climb to the summit were with minimal damage or complaint and the prospects too delicious tobe dampened by the weather and the stairs. As long as our noses do not bleed from the altitude we were happy.

The Dave Brubeck Quartet was scheduled for the first. After a few announcements that I do not remember, calmed the crowd and showed the decency to which the site was used for high tone. The curtain opened and there they were in a casual ready. E 'was Ron Crotty on bass, Lloyd Davis on drums, Paul Desmond on alto sax and Brubeck, with huge rimmed glasses should beshiny black wings, on the keys. The set immediately and unceremoniously opened with the classic early-to-be-jazz that today you can see the first bar - and went from there. I can not remember the exact offer, but I remember how he felt.

The following liner notes, they all said in better words I can say. Genius, a subsidiary on the rise, surprising ... respectfully ... Challenge interaction. Timing innovative. Surprising improvisation. In addition, there were onlyquite an interjection of a classically trained mind to know how to stream trailers, back in the day, she felt at first hearing his music. The absolute art of all the parties reserve the room eating the most inspired. The atmosphere became infused with the hums, ironic smiles and applause and spontaneous responses to a real jazz audience, he would soon learn, was the same, no matter the location.

During the break it was announced that Gerry Mulligan's flight was delayedbecause of the time. Decent little moan. Brubeck and company resumed, but in the midst of this, a suspension of harassment and neglected looking Gerry Mulligan staggered on stage (half carrying / half driven by his ridiculously large horn) with his band. Any decent Orchestra Hall-bound, at that time had been lost by now.

After a few adjustments Mulligan took the floor and proceeded to banish the frustrations that accompany delayedTravel, weather and various other challenges to the habitual calm. The control group perfectly tailored (very) small step ties and suits, but not now match and crumpled pushed, pushed, high and blocked for one hour. The audience went into tent revival mode.

But it was more ...

Just when we were sure we would have thrown out, Brubeck and Desmond returned - just come back from sailing. Hell broke loose.

With a minimum amountChit Chat - or that's how I remember - all those involved in the first part of another complete set created. Desmond and Mulligan romanced, challenged and dueled. Brubeck bent over, flashed the shiny black large, his diabolical prudence and showed a bit 'less cold and a lot more intensity. It 'was at least one clock and no one was to move an inch.

About an hour later we found ourselves on a cold and lonely Michigan Avenue. I do not even remember the descent from our perch highon stage. The audience was still in the experience and has not disintegrated into individuals. She still wore the awe and were congratulating each other in the right place at the right time. And then the famous Chicago "hawk" reminded us of where we were. We moved deeper into our coats and hurried to our cars, but we were warm all the way home.
