Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington

Perhaps rereading my previous post, there seems to be a lack of clarity in my writing: Parker and the bop primarily innovated it at the improvisational level, but not only that. Let us not forget musicians like Bud Powell, an eclectic composer as well as an extraordinary virtuoso, and a certain brilliant musician named Herbie Nichols, who, starting from the bop, managed to carve out his own absolutely innovative compositional space.

The music of Monk, beyond its stylistic aspect, represented a novelty especially at the compositional level for Jazz. Bop, and Parker in particular, innovated it from an improvisational standpoint. The substantial difference is this: the rhythmic-harmonic aspect remains the means and not the end. And then the musical world, outside of Jazz, during those years was living off a source so rich that it could draw freely from both musicians.

Unmissable the Concert at the Storyville club (Roost), the Norgran Sessions with Brookmeyer. Excellent review.

Bravo Jargon, a masterpiece as ambitious as it is successful, it was truly a shame that it was still missing on Deb. Review as always at the top.

It had been a while since a healthy and light review of Classicismo was due. I need to think it over, though. Now.

From such an accurate review, it seems to interest me. I will give it a try.

The first record edition of Thursday is by Deutsche Grammophon with four LPs for 2 kg and mess, anyway: a majestic and absolutely melodic opera, the style remains unmistakably unique with a surprising desire to communicate. In short, for all ears. It’s worth seeing as well as listening.

One of the best hard rock bands to ever walk the planet Earth, their strength, beyond melodic ideas and instrumental refinements, lies in the ideal symbiosis, in short, a natural interplay between musicians. A jazz rock trio! The favorite albums remain: Just a Game, The Sport of Kings, Thunder Seven, Allied Forces, Surveillance... Let's get to it: practically all of them.

Oh well, I don’t know the album, "But really one of the few Jazz albums that truly captures the spirit of this musical genre." Hmm, actually, I don't know.

I would recommend the version by John Cage from '58, included in the legendary triple LP or CD, "The 25 Year Retrospective Concert of the Music of John Cage."
