Two years after the Dave Brubeck Quartet’s ground- and time-signature breaking Time Out (1959), this classic quartet (Brubeck, piano, Paul Desmond, alto sax, Eugene Wright, bass, and Joe Morello, drums) would continue its jazz experiments in a series that was often inspired by abstract paintings. Time Further Out: Miró Reflections was the group’s attempt at a “jazz interpretation” of Miró’s 1925, a visually kinetic work featuring a prominent string of numerals descending from the upper edge of the canvas.
