THELONIOUS

Zonzo Compagnie

music theatre
Thelonious - Zonzo Compagnie © Nele Fack

A drummer, pianist and bassist take you to New York in the first half of the 20th century. The young Thelonious looks at the piano keyboard over his sister’s shoulder and finds himself completely entranced. What follows is a rollercoaster ride of memorable encounters, jam sessions, success stories and a considerable portion of bad luck. As stubborn as he is talented, Thelonious Monk has a career full of ups and downs, making wilful music full of odd harmonies and strange rhythms.

This concert is part of RAND! - the BRAND! 2019 Jazz festival side programme.

Live music and video mapping draw you into Thelonious’ compulsion to experiment and show you more and more new facets of this fascinating musician. Ride this bebop train and get right under Thelonious’ skin. There’s no saying where we will end up, but it’s sure to be a crazy ride!

“Jazz for the over-sixes: isn’t that a bit over-ambitious? We put it to the test and Zonzo Compagnie rocked it, with visible gusto.” ★★★★ De Standaard
