Monk had a profound influence on jazz from the late forties onward. His pianistic approach, rooted in the stride style of Fats Waller and James P. Johnson, embraced modes, whole tones, clusters and polytonality. His compositions remain an important resource in the jazz repertoire, with many of his tunes now considered standards and part of every improvising musician’s library. His music will continue to delight and challenge every serious jazz musician in decades to come.
