Cost: $30 - $35
The celebration of the 100th birthday of jazz giant Thelonious Monk features Danilo Pérez with Ben Street and Adam Cruz, featuring Pérez on piano, Street on bass, and Cruz on drums. Monk is universally regarded as one of jazz’s greatest icons and his enduring influence is still paramount today. Twenty years ago, Pérez recorded an album celebrating Monk’s legacy. On Panamonk, Pérez explored Monk’s music and style through a contemporary jazz lens, adding a bit of his own personal Panamanian flair.
