Stage Door: MONK IN MOTION

November 18, 2015 at 7:30 p.m.
The music of jazz icon Thelonious Monk lends itself quite naturally to the world of modern dance. Monk himself frequently broke into a spontaneous "whirling dervish" on the bandstand inspired by the infectious rhythmic drive of his fellow musicians. For this Stage Door presentation, CSI music instructors Brent Jensen and Scott Farkas collaborate with CSI dance instructor Cindy Jones to present an evening of Monk's music (performed by Jensen & Farkas) set to modern dance (choreographed by Jones)."Monk in Motion" is sure to leave you with a new appreciation for the music of this legendary jazz master.
