Hace muchos años, cuando no había internet, pusieron este concierto por TVE, y lo vi con mi padre, seguido e hipnotizados, sin decir una palabra. Cuando algo es muy grande, uno calla y escucha, como hace el mismo thelonius cuando los otros músicos solean.
Something about Monk's style of swinging just makes me laugh out loud. His playing possesses such a hilarious sense of humor, both rhythmically and in his choice of intervals.
How majical minutes ago I told a pianist friend Monk plays calculus while we play arithmetics. And in sharing your laughter, I realized he makes laughter in the context Niels Bohr''s quantum physics confused Einstein.
To have such talent and an absolute connection to the instrument that it conveys what is in your soul instantly … I’m sure mere human words cannot describe the satisfaction from it. I can only admire in amazement.
Monk's hand position on the keyboard would drive piano teachers crazy.BUT he is so accurate in his playing; doesn't miss a note.Monk is a total phenom.
I mean, I love Monk!!!!!!! I think Monk is advanced both rhythmically and tonally. Now, consider those who love him rhythmically, but don't like him tonally. Are you convinced those are rhythmically inept too?
Buddy I totally meant this in a more tongue and cheek way and to compliment/point out how advanced Monk's rhythmic sense was. I am happy to see you edited your post, in which you called me a bitch, with hindsight and see how being insultful actually hurts your credibility.
Yeah, I agree, it was a little bit too much with the insulting. Still, I think your point is on bad logical grounds, though. The logic is easily fixed, and I think you know how, and I also think you can imagine what I will say next if you do :)
I think you have totally misunderstood what I said quite frankly. I don't just enjoy Monk because of his rhythm, it's the whole package i enjoy. I still think it is true that most people who don't like his music simply don't understand where he was coming from rhythmically. Like I said, I meant it in a more jokingly and tongue and cheek way. I just think you are taking it too seriously.
Still if I interpret your comment in a tongue in cheeck or jokingly way, it has some logical content. I think it cannot be interpeted away even if you say it's a joke. I think jokes that ignore it's logical content are not that common (would love examples of this!). If it's a joke, then I'll just point out the flaw in the joke. In this last post you've written a new and edited version of the comment which doesn't have the same flaw.
Agreed. Monk is one the great American composers in history. A true genius in the world of jazz, but more importantly a singular voice in the musical landscape as a whole.
I am always shocked when I watch Monk. He is pure electricity. He dances around the music treating it as a living breathing entity speaking to him as he speaks it.
Guaguanko! He’s playing Rumba out of that drums called piano!!!aguaaaa!!!!! Just got me to dance At 4.00 am!!!!haaaaa!!! Thanks Monk for the Clave! Even the ring make him play different!!!! The team sounds right!
Monk in jazz like Picasso in drawing and sculpting, very hard to understand but any one love Mona Lisa. I'm a fan of Monk even if I don't understand all his hard genius style.
He most likely didn't write it himself, but the person who did, and the pianist who got raped, most definitely was influenced by this...how could they not be? But if Family Guy allows us to appreciate this, there must be some gain, right?
Del piano, solo me gusta la parte que ronda el minuto 20:00 en adelante. Lo anterior no me parece una melodia interesante para nada. Curioso que digan que el jazz es el género más complejo y que elaborado, pero la mayoría de piezas de jazz que escuché me parecen insulsas. Si quieren escuchar un verdadero género musical con melodías exquisitas (qué es de lo que se trata pa música) escuchen Bossa Nova, por ejemplo, liderado por uno de los más grandes cantantes de música popular mundial, Joao Gilberto y al músico Tom Jobim que por cierto influencio también al Jazz junto con Joao Gilberto.
Like all geniuses, makes you want to practice more...or just give it up. Also, heard that Oscar Peterson didn't care for Monk. I don't get that. Robert Burnett.
Monk's improvising and ability to support a solo are vastly underrated. Not to mention his impeccable sense of rhythm. My only criticism, the only possible, is that he has no sense of humor.

Charlie rouse a legend not often talked about

Happy one hundredth birthday, October 10, 2017, from your hometown Rocky Mount, NC. Wow, what a talent!
What a pleasure to watch him and Charlie after so many years of listening. My favorite right there !
To have such talent and an absolute connection to the instrument that it conveys what is in your soul instantly … I’m sure mere human words cannot describe the satisfaction from it. I can only admire in amazement.
Incredible. You have to love this man. Not of this world.
God, seems like there was an abundance of mind-blowingly good bebop sax players back in the say
Absolutely astounding! Monk is my favorite Jazz musician of all time...what a band
What's you favorite color ?
The gangsta of Jazz, a complete and total original.
T.S. Monk
Monk's hand position on
the keyboard would drive
piano teachers crazy.BUT

playing; doesn't miss a
note.Monk is a total phenom.
He doesn't miss a note? You must have golden ears.
Darn That Dream, Memories of You, Chordially... So much ! Genius, Genius ! Genius !
I am convinced that people who can't stand Monk are rhythmically inept...

Easily one of the greatest pieces ever performed in all of music, never mind genre.
I agree man,there's probably one hundred tunes,just in that tune alone!
Great for sure. He’s got mojo
Without a doubt!
Agreed. Monk is one the great American composers in history. A true genius in the world of jazz, but more importantly a singular voice in the musical landscape as a whole.
You say that just because is black like you. The best music ever are Bob Dylan, Joao Gilberto, Pixinguinha, Jobim..
Gracias por compartir esta joya... saludos / thanks for sharing this precious jewel...!
Thelonious, Wow!!! this Man was a God R.l.P and love
Thelonius Monk was a musical genius that we are still trying to wrap our minds around.
Me gusta la buena música, gracias!!!!
Amazing, love the way he changes hands without missing a note.
Charlie is tremedous on sax and Thelonious out of space ....fantastic
Cuatro grandisimos músicos del siglo 20,
Un concierto de lujo para recordar siempre, mucho talento y mucho arte genial los cuatro.
Mister Monk belongs to my heroes
Nice! My favorite Monk tunes, Light Blue, with Johhny Griffin, and Ugly Beauty.
20:09 Ben Riley imitating Monk's dancing; Rouse cracking up.
It looks like Charlie saw him on the TV monitor.
@@goedeck1 I is a lovely tribute to the great solos!
I am always shocked when I watch Monk. He is pure electricity. He dances around the music treating it as a living breathing entity speaking to him as he speaks it.
A Great work of art
Wish I could have been there 5*****
Guaguanko! He’s playing Rumba out of that drums called piano!!!aguaaaa!!!!! Just got me to dance At 4.00 am!!!!haaaaa!!! Thanks Monk for the Clave! Even the ring make him play different!!!! The team sounds right!
Everything moved apart recalling whereabouts
our best EVER.... OWR PRECIOUS mONK.....
Charlie Rouse el mejor saxo tenor para Monk, se nota su ausencia en otras grabaciones.
Genius. Thanks for uploading!
The team rocks ❤️
You are so right.
Excelso Monk!!! gracias
It feels like it's RIGHT FUCKING NOW.
Because it is.
Thank god there was Monk.
Charlie Rouse knew it all
LOL @ 5:10 "Oh shit it's my turn to play now".
Free floating geniuses! All of them...
transcribing it. would like to transcribe every note he ever played
Ah !!! Maravilloso...pero Ben Riley, por favor !!!
Best Quartet EVER !!!
Monk in jazz like Picasso in drawing and sculpting, very hard to understand but any one love Mona Lisa. I'm a fan of Monk even if I don't understand all his hard genius style.
crazy good
GENIUS
mucho talento!
Some serious thoughts went into recording this just by the camera angles the triangle is always in view.
Sounds like Seth MacFarlane borrowed from this when he wrote the Family Guy theme.
+thisdudegotreal Thats what I was hearing too.
He most likely didn't write it himself, but the person who did, and the pianist who got raped, most definitely was influenced by this...how could they not be? But if Family Guy allows us to appreciate this, there must be some gain, right?
it's a fats waller song but
thelonious' version is a thing all it's own
more of like a reinterpretation than just a cover
Hasta mañana cielo💚💛
Brilliant!
Ben Riley.
Yes?
sublime
more bass solo! that was 👍
En el minuto 03:00 entra en trance....un genio sin ninguna duda!
Transe?!?! Não, amigo, é cachaça mesmo. É a velha mistura da "marvada" com a genialidade.
Salve Monk!
yo quiero bailar como monk,porque tocar ni ahi jaja
Técnicamente no es difícil superarlo
Love when he stands up and lets the band solo.
That Drummer is just phenomenal. I play drums. Jazz drummers are the best in my personal opinion.
When he stands up *_*
WAS ON HIS BEST HERE
Louis-Duke-Monk
Paulo Manuel Cristo Agree: + Coltrane - Mingus - Davis

I translate' In Denmark ... ;-)
Intro de padre de familia - into, Family guy animated
Liking Monk and understanding Monk are two very things . I like Monk, a lot.
Do I understand or "stand" Monk?

Del piano, solo me gusta la parte que ronda el minuto 20:00 en adelante. Lo anterior no me parece una melodia interesante para nada.
Curioso que digan que el jazz es el género más complejo y que elaborado, pero la mayoría de piezas de jazz que escuché me parecen insulsas.

Like all geniuses, makes you want to practice more...or just give it up. Also, heard that Oscar Peterson didn't care for Monk. I don't get that. Robert Burnett.
One Poet and writer said he was an elephant on the keyboard. To me he’s like a punk rock Jazz Man. Lived hard. He was a rock star before they existed.
different styles is all that means. oscar was great, but not a musical genius.
Denemarken...heeft hem wel geinspireerd.
TAK til Morten for at have sendt mig dette med hr. Riley bag trommerne

That was his sense of humor... ) :
Ernest Mendez, that was his sense of humor ) :
Kidding? You must have a sense of humor to play his way. Its playful. Serious people always have a comedic side. Just my thoughts
@@bobbynewman2509 perhaps you're right. But the fact that I've never seen a picture or video of him smiling or laughing is awfully damning.
@@ernestmendez5487 Smiling and laughing is vastly overrated.
Familay Guy song is completely stolen...such shame....
family guy sucked
After the barber shop Lulu is back under her crown searching a new clown.
*day
Family Guy
始めの演奏はさすがにモンクもまともになったのかと少し安心したが、実は１分半もすぎればだんだん乗り始めて活元運動が出始めて、三分で立ち上がりうろつき始める。夢遊病者のように。
これでは、マイルスが共演したときモンクの伴奏をやめてもらったのも理解できる。伴奏にならないからだ。
