Brubeck Hints At New Paths After Farewell Pittsburgh Show
Jazz legend Dave Brubeck, 47, says he will write and compose but not at a breakneck pace after his final Pittsburgh concert with the Brubeck Quartet. He plans a new work titled A Wilderness and a book exploring themes inspired by Hindu guidance, while retiring to a cantilevered home in Wilton Connecticut.
