In 1958, Dave Brubeck and his fa­mous Quar­tet was sent by the US State De­part­ment on a tour to Eu­rope be­hind the “Iron Cur­tain” and then onto the Mid­dle East.

Now, 60 years later, two of Dave's sons, bassist Chris Brubeck and drum­mer Dan Brubeck (both of whom toured and recorded ex­ten­sively with Dave Brubeck) will be play­ing at the Prague Proms with their group – The Brubeck Broth­ers Quar­tet. The Brubecks will be joined by pi­anist Chuck Lamb and gui­tarist Mike DeMicco.

The Brubeck Broth­ers Quar­tet have played all the ma­jor jazz fes­ti­vals in North Amer­ica and their 3 CDs have hit the top of the Amer­i­can jazz ra­dio charts. The BBQ will be play­ing some of the orig­i­nal tunes that Dave Brubeck made fa­mous and which were in­spired by that his­toric 1958 tour, in­clud­ing Blue Rondo a la Turk, The Golden Horn, Take Five and oth­ers.
