Time Out is a 1959 studio album by the Dave Brubeck Quartet, often linked to the cool jazz and West Coast jazz movements. This album was inspired by musical traditions Brubeck encountered while touring Eurasia on a U.S. State Department and one key influence came from Turkey, where he heard street musicians playing in 9/8 time, a structure rarely used in Western music.

In 1910, Irish humanitarian Roger Casement journeyed to the Amazon rainforest of Peru to investigate horrific atrocities committed against Indigenous communities by the rubber industry. His report—now known as The Blue Book—became a pivotal document in the history of human rights. Over a century later, Peruvian-Irish composer and guitarist Rodrigo Almonte brings Casement’s powerful testimony to life in Sounds of the Blue Book—a striking new suite of music that blends jazz, improvisation, and traditional Irish and Peruvian sounds into a moving and richly textured performance.
