THE GENIUS OF THELONIOUS MONK

LISTENING TO JAZZ: THE GENIUS OF THELONIOUS MONK

ONLINE WORKSHOP WITH PAUL SILBERGLEIT

Enjoy a tour through Monk’s classic recordings with the guidance of MJI’s Paul Silbergleit. 

Learn more about Thelonious Monk (1917-1982), a singularly brilliant and idiosyncratic composer who created tunes that are at once angular and groovy, dissonant and utterly beautiful, and which have come to represent a distinct category in the repertoire of jazz musicians. He also helped to define the bebop language, and played piano in his own totally unique, strange, and hip way! 

Cost: $15
