This Week at Iridium...



March 30-April 3 Roswell Rudd - Monksieland Band with Dave Douglas, Don Byron, Jean Jacques Avenel and John Bestch



Steve Lacy and I began a musical partnership back in the early 60˙s devoted exclusively to performing the works of Thelonious Monk. Both of us had come up on older music and both heavily into Dixieland. Our approach at the time was to come as close as we could to being faithful to the inherent structures of Monk's music. As time went on we were able to absorb these very original forms to where we could also project our own voices. Every time Lacy and I recorded or performed together, the Monk bond experience was always in the picture. This year Steve came to me and said, “let's do Monksieland!" We had come full circle.

My dear collaborator and friend Steve Lacy is no longer with us. We carry on in his spirit .

Roswell Rudd
