THE MONKTET 2025 REMAINS A TRIBUTE

a jazz orchestra specializing in and honoring the music of Thelonious Monk. As the arranger, Larry Williams uses Monk’s music as a palette for his own self expression, to explore not only the full spectrum of the Jazz idiom,  but also by integrating some rhythms and sensibilities from the popular music idioms of today. ex. hiphop, dnb, techno, etc.

'The possibilities are many…and they are out there.'
