Joseph Morello (July 17, 1928 – March 12, 2011) was a jazz drummer best known for his 12-year stint with The Dave Brubeck Quartet. He was frequently noted for playing in the unusual time signatures employed by that group in such pieces as 《Take Five》and《Blue Rondo a la Turk》. Popular for its work on college campuses during the 1950s, Brubeck’s group reached new heights with Morello. In June 1959, Morello participated in a recording session with the quartet — completed by the alto saxophonist Paul Desmond and the bassist Eugene Wright — that yielded《Kathy’s Waltz》and《Three to Get Ready》,both of which intermingled 3/4 and 4/4 time signatures.
