Dave Brubeck Day

May 4, Sunday

Dave Brubeck Day is celebrated annually on May 4 in honor of the famous American jazz pianist and composer Dave Brubeck, who is one of the most influential musicians in the history of jazz. The date of the celebration was chosen due to the title of one of Brubeck's most famous works, "Take Five", which is written in 5/4 time. A play on words and numbers - May 4 (5/4 in the American date format) perfectly reflects the composer's unique musical style. Dave Brubeck Day is an opportunity to celebrate the musician's contribution to the development of jazz, inspire people to study his work and popularize jazz music. His work expanded the boundaries of the genre, making jazz accessible to a wider audience.
