**Producers**: Bruce Ricker, Charlotte Zwerin Sit back and soak up the music of pioneering jazz pianist Thelonious Monk through our epic sound system as you marvel at the musical mastery of one of music’s greatest talents. Along with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, pianist Thelonious Monk is credited as one of the pioneering musicians of bebop and is the second most recorded jazz composer in the world. Charlotte Zwerin’s documentary tries to unravel Monk, who was known for having a thorny personality and an aggressive playing technique to match. Interviews with Monk’s son and fellow musicians shed some light, and performance footage from a European tour captures his idiosyncratic style. This musical portrait of a legend highlights the work and process of a master and will never sound better than through our speakers! **Accessibility Options**: Amplified Audio, please see the box office for devices.
