Blue Monk by Thelonious Monk

Quinn S.

  • This is my recording of Blue Monk, by Thelonious Monk. It is a jazz standard over a 12-bar blues chord progression. There are many different versions of this tune, but the original by Thelonious Monk is the most famous. I decided to submit this song because with such a limited amount of time to show my creativity, I felt the best way to do so was over a blues progression.

  • Jazz Improvisation enables a new form of non-verbal communication between my bandmates and I, bolsters many of my closest relationships, and is the catalyst for new relationships in my life.
