- Thelonious Monk, uno de los genios mas importante e influyentes de la historia de la música. Pianista y compositor de impresionante talento y originalidad, se le ve en estas imágenes en pleno éxtasis musical.
Thelonious Monk absolutely genius.
I know unique. I love music and stopped by to check this out.
This man was the embodiment of natural musical talent and genius.
He is one of a kind and from head to toe, this man is cool. Beautiful clothes, suit, cap, shoes he is unreal.
Then he dances and plays piano and is other worldly.
What a great moment of perfection
Monk's right foot swings more then anything I could play
Even walking away, he was listening. And Monk's first phrase is a response to Charlie's. And then builds off of it. Crazy. Brilliant.
Monk was both musician and audience. Perfect!
While most musicians would continue playing, Monk would stop, stand up, and dance for a few moments before returning to the piano.
That cat was cool af. RIP Monk.
His wife called him Melodious Thunk, apparently! Lovely.
YES
no, she didn't
Monk would start dancing because he'd accomplished his goal of inspiring the band to swing. He mentioned this in a few interviews. He wasn't interested in more notes or the heights of virtuosity (though he could've achieved that had he so desired), but in the transcendent rhythmic power of the greatest of all music. Monk was both a mathematical genius and autistic. Combined with his passion for Jazz, those traits allowed him to become one of the greatest, most striking, memorable and brilliant composers in the history of music.
In this performance of 'The man I love', with Miles Davis, Monk stops playing his solo after several very sparse bars and I'd put money on the fact that he'd stood up and started dancing, as the bass and drums are swinging beautifully. At 5 minutes 43 seconds, Miles uses his horn to call Monk back to the piano (with a quote from Miles' tune 'Four'... as if to say "hey man are you done? I mean... we're making a recording here) and Monk's solo begins again, and with renewed focus and brilliance! ruclips.net/video/rTmRVastF5Q/видео.html
On the flip side, Monk fell asleep at the piano on many occasions when he was drinking. May not have mixed well with the Thorazine. Could have been the weed, also.
Everyone is crazy. What makes Monk different is that he doesn't hide his craziness.

WOOOOOOO
HE WAS LISTENING TO ROUSE'S LAST PHRASE (he played Rouse's rhythm and continued his thought, all while running back to the piano)!
DAMN! That was killin'!
The jazz musicians from this era give my chills, it like they were from a different world.
Don’t you think this is the reason why we don’t hear new, equally existentially filled, edgy jazz today. Different time, different people, different music.
It's obvious to me
What an honor it was to become Thelonious in Laurence Holder's one-man play MONK... for over twenty years all around this country and even in Senegal, West Africa!
love when he rushes to the piano and he is still dancing with his right foot while playing the piano
Love when he runs back to the piano - he's both in the world and out at the same time.
Ben Riley, drums, Larry Gales, bass, Charlie Rouse, tenor, killing❤️❤️❤️
I'm avidly listening to Monk recently. He was from outer space. Fantastic footage 👍
I've read so many reports of how "weird" Monk's dancing was. He was just dancing. What is weird is how inhibited most people are.
True.
Nothing weird just doing his thing 🌸
He's being joyous. Nothing wrong with that.
The critics were afraid of his genius. He invented the Funky Chicken!
His dancing was weird....not a big deal either way but his moves were odd
Charlie Rouse's phrases are fucking fresh, I don't blame Monk at all breaking into dance!
Lee Nuxunumo . You got that right. Monk played with some of the greatest sax players of all time like Johnny Griffin, Harold Land, Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Lou Donaldson, Yardbird, Coleman Hawkins, Steve Lacy, Gerry Mulligan, Ernie Henry, and Phil Woods. But nobody, not even Rollins or Coltrane, understood and complemented Monk’s vision as well as the criminally underrated Charlie Rouse.
Rouse was an underrated beast
@@blindlemon9 FACTS
@@blindlemon9 amen brother
He was into the music like no one else .
Legend!
I saw Janis Joplin. I saw Thelonious Monk. I saw Miles. I saw Sonny. Toss up.
Missed Bird.
Still a lucky guy. Great clip. Ty.
Wow
I love the way he can play the most sublime jazz piano and sound like he’s hitting the notes while wearing boxing gloves...often in the same solo!
And the way he’s so wrapped up in the moment he likes to dance during a hot chorus is so sweet! He clearly lived and breathed music!
I'd wish I seen him live I was to damn young but his legacy is assured the Great Thelonious Monk one of a kind musician!
Thelonius era un genio
Creo que Monk nunca antes había sido retratado de esta manera, capturaron un momento de éxtasis y genialidad en su improvisación como ningún otro, este es el testimonio de quien era realmente thelonious monk, un Genio de la música, y audaz interprete.
That was the fab TM just groin' to the music, like when the iconic Duke Ellington used to show the audience how to get the beat and what to do with it. BEAUTIFUL.
Woah, can i have source please?
I knew a saxophone player like Monk in terms of his mannerisms. The sax player I jammed with was damn good.
The tune is Evidence; i have the full documentary Straight, No Chaser with this segment on it
He would have been 100 today-the word genius is thrown around but he was one.And he got back right on time to take his break.
top-class dancing!
- it appears you are famous Thelonious
- when you are famous they put you in that book? Gee, I'm famous, ain't that a bitch?
Genio, esta baile de es emblematico de Thelonius...
Monk's reasons for dancing during a performance: “I get tired sitting down at the piano! That way I can dig the rhythm better.”
Alive and in the moment.
I'm looking for this exact concert
Suit! She understood.. We musicians are not so lucky samtaims.. tu haffa a waifi laik dat!Respect for her, cuz she make evritin posible so this guy could make what he born for, or maybe the only thing he could do really gooooodd, form the hearth...It is what it isss yooo!!!!!!!!!!!
Muchas gracias por compartirlo.
yeah that movie's great...i remember watching that at the Boston library in when i was at Berklee...
+ R.I.P. Gentlemen, and thank you.
"I'm famous, ain't that a bitch...?"
"I'm famous, aint that a bitch."
This is what's missing in music right now.
Does anyone know where to find the full footage of this take?
This is cute. Lol. Now im addicted to Monk!
That's the "I got a white woman at home" dance lmao. I kid, but his relationship Pannonica Rothschild would make for an incredible movie.
J'aimerais bien voir la suite de l'interview ...
his right foot is great
If i had to explain to an alien from scratch what music was, i'd just show them this video
does anyone know where i can see this whole clip? i would love to hear Rouse's whole solo
Looks like he's doing a Sufi or similar ritualistic dance.
NO> Just enjoying himself like black musicians do when feeling good.
He probably smoked a joint
Loool
"That's what that mean?"
"I'm famous. Ain't that a bitch?"
This is the video you play the aliens who are trying to decide whether to annihilate humanity or not.
This God iz a god
Not going to win ‘ strictly’ but a joy to watch!
He's just like me fr

Matthew 7:6 through 9. Powerful.
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you...
LOGOS
7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
GOD bless this beacon. Amene

For me monk is a sufist ( hermit)
That's not true, he did do drugs, not that it matters much. I am more annoyed that you think there is some correlation between talent and madness, it's just not true, there is plenty of evidence of that around. Even worse, there is plenty of people who try to portray themselves as mad to earn credibility, and you're ignorance is just making it easier for them to feed on that myth.
I thought the same thing about Horace Silver and i don't really see any evidence to back it up. gifted people are unfortunately troubled with thinking too much, especially about things that don't matter and do things to make them stop thinking, it's not a gift it's a more of a curse. And it's always been self destructive from what I've seen, maybe the next talent will be different
I came to see his legs
He must be so high oh my god
Yeah, he's high on the beat and the groove.
I know you made this comment 4 years ago, I hope you're not this stupid anymore, imbecile.
Evidence of what, fools/
