The music of Thelonious Monk is among the most requested of any jazz composer, but accurate lead sheets and sources have never been widely available – until now. This folio has 70 of the master composer/pianist's most familiar pieces, as well as a number of obscure and unrecorded tunes, in easy-to-read versions. Includes counterlines and ensemble parts for many pieces, as well as bass-lines and piano voicings where applicable. Also includes a biography, a glossary, and a definitive discography of the compositions in the book. Titles include: Ask Me Now, Bemsha Swing, Blue Monk, Blue Sphere, Boo Boo's Birthday, Bright Mississippi, Brilliant Corners, Bye-Ya, Crepuscule With Nellie, Criss Cross, 52nd Street Theme, Functional, Gallop's Gallop, Hackensack, I Mean You, In Walked Bud, Jackie-ing, Let's Cool One, Little Rootie Tootie, Misterioso, Monk's Mood, Nutty, Off Minor, Pannonica, Played Twice, Rhythm-a-ning, 'Round Midnight, Ruby, My Dear, Straight No Chaser, Thelonious, Well You Needn't, and 39 more.
