This is Ted Gioia. We are at Chris Brubeck's house in Wilton, Connecticut, conducting an oral history with Dave Brubeck as part of the Smithsonian's program of conducting oral histories with NEA [National Endowment for the Arts] Jazz Masters.  Today is August 6, 2007. Our plan is to conduct the oral history over a two-day period, today and tomorrow, August 7. Dave, I have a number of questions here, taking you through your life history, and would like to start by talking to you about your grandparents. First of all, I'd like to know about your paternal grandparents, Louis Warren Brubeck and Louisa Grass Brubeck. What can you tell me about them? What recollections do you have of them?
