MONK ON THE MOON
ARRANGED AND RECORDED BY JACK WALRATH
Since emerging from Charles Mingus' group in the 1970s, trumpeter JACK WALRATH has earned a reputation as an adventuresome composer and arranger.
SEPTET INSTRUMENTATION
This tonally-advanced Monk tribute begins with individual lines for each member of the ensemble that fit together into a quirky statement of the melody. Then the horns come together and play in more concerted rhythm, but the music's otherworldly quality is maintained through unusual harmonies and permutations of the melodic material.
SOLOS: In contrast to the rest of the chart, the changes are characteristic modern jazz changes full of dominant 7 chords and typical harmonic movement. The changes should be no problem for a soloist reasonably familiar with Monk's music and advanced bebop harmony.
Recorded by JACK WALRATH on MASTER OF SUSPENSE [Blue Note: CDP 7 46905 2 / Recorded September 19, 1986]
