Two legends, one stage—Cal Performances welcomes two titans of American jazz in this double bill event! Dave Brubeck—the king of "West Coast Cool"—has been wowing audiences ever since he personally led jazz into the "Swinging 60s" with hits like "Take Five" and "Blue Rondo à la Turk" and is still going strong at the age of 85! His distinctive harmonic approach and daring improvisations have thrilled critics and fans ever since. Ramsey Lewis has ranked among the world's great jazz pianists for more than 40 years, regularly topping the charts with classics like "The In Crowd" and "Wade in the Water." A multiple Grammy winner, Lewis' performance style and musical selections display his early Gospel and classical training along with his love of a multitude of other musical forms.
