Music from the "Jazz opera" of the same name, written by Dave and Iola Brubeck. First performed in a cut-down version of 10 tunes at the Monterey Jazz Festival in 1962.
Some of the songs were originally instrumental pieces written and recorded by Dave Brubeck, sometimes under different titles; the Brubecks later added lyrics and incorporated them into the opera.
