About This Song
About "Monk / Williams / Arr Barnett : Round Midnight" by Chanticleer
Thelonious Monk's 'Round Midnight' becomes a velvet labyrinth in this Chanticleer arrangement. Voices drift like cigarette smoke through a dim club, Barnett's chart balancing jazz's after-hours melancholy with choral precision. The tension: a solitary trumpet's ghost against the hush of ensemble breath—loneliness made plural.
