Editorial Reviews

Product Description
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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Which edition to buy, February 25, 2006
There are _three_ editions of this book. To get the right one, search for the ISBN number I list here:
B-flat edition: 0634039202
C edition: 0634039180
E-flat edition: 0634039210
Copy and paste the number into the search box, search for the number, and buy the book it matches.

4.0 out of 5 stars It's a B-flat edition, not C, July 21, 2005
The one with the green cover is B-flat, not C. If you're looking for the C edition, it has a blue cover.

The webpage doesn't say anything about the key of the edition.

Amazon sent me the wrong version (Bb) twice, and finally I asked for a refund.

Great book of T. Monk's songs featuring obscure music. Legibility is great for music reading and it is very accurate.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Resource for the Serious Musician
This book is great. Steve Cardenas did the transcriptions, and he knows Monk's music really well and clearly put in a lot of time. Read more
