Smithsonian Museum – Washington D.C Celebrating Thelonious Monk
I’m excited to head to the smithsonian this weekend, perform my rare arrangments of Thelonious Monk’s Compositions. With me a great team of players:
Matt Aronoff, Ronen Itzik, Derrick Michaels, Theljon Allen, Russell Kirk, Todd Marcus, Delandria Mills.
A few notes on the project: Thelonius Monk’s unusual language has gathered a considerable momentum over the last few decades, hence the multitude of cultural references to his canonical compositions such as ‘blue-monk’ and ‘round-midnight‘ among other very well played tunes during his life time and following his death, though there were plenty of other obscurer masterpieces that were rarely performed publicly such as ‘Something in Blue‘, ‘trinkle-tinkle’ & ‘North of the Sunset’ among others.
