Monk's Music
Combines cultural theory, biography, and musical analysis to shed light on Monk's music and on the jazz canon itself. This book shows how the work of this nonconformist composer emerged from the jazz world's fringes to find a central place in its canon. It considers how Monk's stature has grown, from the narrowly focused wing of the avant-garde.
