Pianist and composer Dave Brubeck talks to
Geoffrey Smith about the first concert his Quartet gave at Carnegie Hall in 1963. "I've played there many times, but the first time was scary - a panic. You're fortunate to get through and not fall down or something."
Eventually the Quartet broke up in 1967, and Brubeck went on to play with other groups of musicians, including three of his sons. Producer Derek Drescher
