Last weekend, Dave Brubeck recorded a new solo piano album, which will probably be entitled "songs out of our time". Despite of suffering during the recording session from a sprained ankle, Brubeck considers the album 'his best solo recording so far.'

On March 9, Hank Jones has cancelled his March 10 performance at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts "due to illness".
Let's hope he'll soon be appearing in public again.
