Brilliant Corners is a studio album by American jazz musician Thelonious Monk. It was his third album for Riverside Records, and the first, for this label, to include his own compositions. The complex title track required over a dozen takes in the studio. The album was recorded in three sessions in late 1956 with two different quintets. Ba-lue Bolivar Ba-lues-Are and Pannonica, on which Monk played the celeste, were recorded on October 9 with saxophonists Ernie Henry and Sonny Rollins, bassist. Although Brilliant Corners is Thelonious Monk's third disc for Riverside, it's the first on the label to weigh in with such heavy original material. Enthusiasts who become jaded to the idiosyncratic nature of Monk's playing or his practically arithmetical chord progressions should occasionally revisit Brilliant Corners. There is an inescapable freshness and vitality saturated into every measure of every song. The passage of time makes it all the more difficult to imagine any other musicians bearing the capacity to support Monk with such ironic precision.

Monks association with Riverside Records proved to be a productive and creative period in his career. Between 1955 and 1961 Monk participated in 30 recording sessions for Riverside and released 14 studio and live albums. Among them you can find one of 1950s jazz milestones, his collaboration with John Coltrane recorded at the Five Spot in 1958. Brilliant Corners is likely the album that truly started this journey for both musician and producer. If you enjoyed reading this article, you may also like these: Lonely Woman, by Ornette Coleman. Thelonious Monk's Brilliant Corners. When I was discovering jazz as a student, Thelonious Monk seemed to epitomise the artistic originality, indifference to rules and guileless eccentricity he liked weird hats, and was given to shuffling dances onstage that I loved about the music. Monk's piano solos clanged with dissonance, bumped along in hopping runs or glowered with baleful silences, and his astonishing compositions now recognised as modern musical landmarks, regardless of genre had a strange, inelegant beauty that brusquely reinvented what melody, harmony and rhythm could me. Thelonious Monk - Brilliant Corners review: A Brilliant Bebop record, that's should not be left out as a footnote. The best jazz works are organized sloppiness, and it's what made Thelonious Monk the genius that he was. On Genius of Modern Music Volume 1, Monk presented a tight, unique stature for his work to flow. On Brilliant Corners, he let it flow. As a whole, Brilliant Corners might be the Magnum Opus of all that is Bebop. No other record has the essence of fast and hard, bouncy jazz like Corners does. When some parts are an obvious Bop parsody, others are freely played, with soul and a laid back atmospheres. Brilliant Corners - Thelonious Monk Quintet, Thelonious Monk
