Dave Brubeck

David Warren "Dave" Brubeck () adalah seorang pianis jazz dan komposer Amerika Serikat. Ia dianggap sebagai salah satu musisi jazz yang paling terkemuka. Brubeck menulis sejumlah standar jazz, termasuk "In Your Own Sweet Way" dan "The Duke". Gaya Brubeck yang halus dan bombastis berasal dari upaya ibunya yang sejak kecil melatihnya dengan keahlian musik klasik dan improvisasi. Gaya musiknya dikenal karena menggunakan tanda tempo yang tidak biasa, dan melapisinya dengan irama kontras, meter, dan tonaliti.

Mitra bermusik jangka panjangnya, alto saksoponis Paul Desmond, menulis melodi saksofon untuk Dave Brubeck Quartet, yaitu "Take Five", yang memiliki tempo 5/4, serta jazz klasik yang dianggap sebagai salah satu album jazz terlaris, Time Out. Brubeck bereksperimen dengan tanda tempo sepanjang kariernya, merekam "Pick Up Sticks" dalam tempo 6/4, "Unsquare Dance" dalam 7/4, "World's Fair" dalam 13/4, dan "Blue Rondo à la Turk" dalam tempo 9/8. Ia juga dihormati sebagai seorang komposer musik orkestra dan musik sakral, dan menulis berbagai jalur suara untuk acara televisi seperti Mr. Broadway dan mini seri animasi This Is America, Charlie Brown.
