Our Take

LAURENT DE WILDE's latest album "Monk: Quand Un Jazzman Raconte Un Genie" is a whimsical journey through the genius of Thelonious Monk, as told by the eccentric French pianist himself. De Wilde's playful interpretation of Monk's timeless compositions is both respectful and inventive, capturing the essence of the legendary jazzman while adding his own quirky twist.

From the opening notes of "Blue Monk" to the frenetic energy of "Rhythm-a-Ning," De Wilde's virtuosic piano skills shine brightly throughout the album. His dynamic range and technical prowess bring Monk's unique blend of dissonance and melody to life in a way that is both respectful of the original compositions and refreshingly modern.

But what truly sets this album apart is De Wilde's playful spirit and infectious energy. His love for Monk's music is evident in every note, as he effortlessly weaves in unexpected musical elements and playful improvisations. Tracks like "Epistrophy" and "Ruby, My Dear" showcase De Wilde's ability to reimagine Monk's music in a way that is both reverent and irreverent, creating a delightful listening experience that will leave you tapping your toes and smiling from ear to ear.

In summary, "Monk: Quand Un Jazzman Raconte Un Genie" is a delightful tribute to Thelonious Monk that is sure to put a smile on your face and a swing in your step. Laurent De Wilde's infectious energy and playful spirit make this album a must-listen for jazz fans of all stripes. Raise a glass to the genius of Monk, as told by the equally genius Laurent De Wilde.
