    About this album

    Miles & Monk At Newport is a landmark live document of two towering jazz voices meeting on the Newport stage. Capturing performances by Miles Davis’s Sextet and Thelonious Monk’s Quartet, the album distils the momentum of 1950s hard bop and the freer harmonic thinking that would shape modern jazz. Recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival and issued in 1964, it pairs Davis’s cool, disciplined lyricism with Monk’s angular, highly individual pianism. The result is both historically important and musically vivid, with the famous festival setting adding urgency to already exceptional playing.
