We Six: The Music of Thelonious Monk Performance March 25, 2010

The Music of Thelonious Monk
Sometimes known as the “High Priest of Bebop”, Thelonious Sphere Monk was one of the most influential figures in the history of jazz. Not only a great pianist and leader, Monk was a prolific composer whose compositions (Round Midnight, Straight No Chaser) have become an integral part of the modern jazz canon. In
this final concert of the season, We Six explores the music of this unique genius. Don't miss what promises to be a truly special evening.
