One of the most important jazz ballads ever composed. I have taken Monk's composition and arranged it for guitar. I have made it very playable while sticking closely to Monk's original chord changes. This is one of those tunes that gets played "incorrectly" very often, I have taken the time to listen to the original recording to make sure all of the harmony is correct. I walk you you through the tune from beginning to end and have provided the full arrangement in both notation and tab. Enjoy the lesson!
