HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Jazz composer and pianist Dave Brubeck, whose pioneering style in pieces such as ``Take Five'' caught listeners' ears with exotic, challenging rhythms, has died. He was 91.
Brubeck died Wednesday morning of heart failure after being stricken while on his way to a cardiology appointment with his son Darius, said his manager Russell Gloyd. Brubeck would have turned 92 on Thursday.
Take Five for Dave, thanks for the memories.
