Jazz for Curious Listeners:
World of John Coltrane: "Miles and Monk"
May 13, 2008

Jazz for Curious Listeners continues an exploration into the music of jazz icon John Coltrane with a focus on Coltrane’s tenure with sui generis pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, a short period in which he found his definitive voice. He also played at various times with various configurations of Miles Davis’s small groups. His growth and development at these junctures with Davis will be apparent to all in attendance.

Rest assured that with the instructional guidance of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem Executive Director Loren Schoenberg, you’ll hear some of most stunning tenor saxophone playing anywhere at anytime!
