Review by Karol Krizka

Monk In France The Complete Concert by Thelonious Monk is a classic jazz album that showcases the legendary pianist's incredible talent and creativity. Recorded in 1969 at the Salle Pleyel in Paris, France, the album captures Monk and his band performing live in front of an enthusiastic audience.

The album features 10 tracks, including some of Monk's most iconic compositions such as "Round Midnight," "Blue Monk," and "Straight No Chaser." The performances are energetic and dynamic, with Monk's unique style of playing shining through in every note.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Epistrophy," a fast-paced and complex piece that highlights Monk's virtuosity on the piano. The band, which includes Charlie Rouse on saxophone, Nate Hygelund on bass, and Paris Wright on drums, provides a solid foundation for Monk's improvisations, creating a cohesive and engaging sound.

American jazz pianist and composer. Born: 10 October 1917 in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, USA. Died: 17 February 1982 in Weehawken, New Jersey, USA (aged 64). One of the most influential pianists of the twentieth century, Thelonious Monk had a idiosyncratic improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire. He is often regarded as one of the founders of bebop. Monk's prolific compositions and improvisations are full of dissonant harmonies and angular melodic twists. His unorthodox approach to the piano combines a highly percussive attack with abrupt, use of silence and dramatic pauses. He was also known for a distinct fashion sense in his suits, hats and trademark sunglasses. Monk was an unconventional stage presence, known for getting up from his piano to dance (sometimes in a counter-clockwise motion which drew comparisons to ring-shout and Muslim Sufi whirling) while his band members were still playing. Monk is one of only five jazz musicians to date to be featured on the cover of Time magazine, which puts him in a select company with , , , and . Father of and .
