Limited Seating for VIP Reception
Held at Richard's Clothier on Greenwich Avenue, this charity event was one of a kind. The first and second floor displays were cleared away, and an enraptured audience sat up and down the grand staircase.
Tasty hors d'oeuvres were offered before the delightful performance that highlighted guest soloists from Russian National Orchestra , along with the versatile talents of the Brubeck Brothers Quartet. Among the songs were excerpts from the Claude Bolling suite, originals by Chris Brubeck, ChuckLamb and most importantly tunes by father Dave Brubeck, who was being honored in absentia with the illustrious Silver Baton Award from the Russian National Orchestra. Proceeds from the evening will help fund the many programs of the Russian National Orchestra located in Moscow, and relief efforts sponsored by Jazz'd 4 Life around the world.

The June 19 “Jazz’d 4 Life - One Moment” Benefit Concert with Dave Brubeck was a huge success in all its many aspects. Dave Brubeck, at 88, continues to inspire and transfix audiences lucky enough to hear him perform live. His quartet, made up of Randy Jones on drums, Michael Moore on bass, and Bobby Militello, sax and flute, fluidly supported each other’s talents in swinging renditions of the Duke, The Basie Band is Back in Town, and a poignant offering of Somewhere Over the Rainbow, among other tunes in the hour set. The evening ended with Brubeck’s signature song Take Five.

Dave Brubeck, designated a "Living Legend" by the Library of Congress, continues at age 88 to be one of the most active and popular musicians in the world today. In a career that has spanned more than six decades, his introduction of odd time signatures into jazz, improvised counterpoint, and distinctive harmonies remain hallmarks of a unique musical style unfazed by fad and fashion.
Jazz legend Dave Brubeck celebrated the birth of a new children’s charity – Jazz’d4Life- with hosts Dr. Mel from News Channel 8 and actor, author, producer, Chris Lemmon.
Arne Yaghsizian went home to be with the Lord on March 10, 2012. His memory and work will live on through the lives he has touched over the years.
