Kim Pensyl & Phil DeGreg: Melodious Monk
by Greg Simmons
At some point or another, it seems, every jazz musician takes up the challenge of interpreting Thelonious Monk.

As if responding to ...

On the rare occasion that the instrument does wander outside of its safety net to converse in other musical environments, it ...
Marty Nau Group: Mood Ebony
