Thelonious Monk est l’un des plus grands pianistes du siècle dernier, un génie de la musique qui aura bousculé les conventions et porté la composition dans le jazz au firmament. Transgressif, sans concession, son art est intemporel, inégalé voire inégalable.

Musicien fabuleux, brillant écrivain et normalien, Laurent de Wilde incarne ici son récit avec style et rigueur.
