About

Monk's Casino

Angular and unmistakable, the music of bebop originator Thelonious Monk is now regarded with a reverence that was lacking when he was alive and writing beauties like “Ruby My Dear.” Now, a virtuosic quartet from Germany named Monk’s Casino has dedicated themselves to finessing all of the master’s 70 plus compositions for live performance. Monk’s Casino is more reinvention than retro when they showcase the genius and jagged beauty of one of jazz’s most distinctive voices.

“Spontaneous performance with nonstop surprises . . . they capture the spirit of Monk.” – Martin Wisckol
