The fourth installment in Batiste's ongoing Piano Series, this album finds the Grammy-winning multi-hyphenate returning to his jazz roots, interpreting one of the most iconic and idiosyncratic composers in the music's history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRather than offering a straightforward tribute, Batiste weaves Monk's deceptively complex harmonies together with Afro-Caribbean rhythms, blues, and classical influences drawn from his New Orleans upbringing — evoking the spirits of James Booker and Dr. John alongside Monk's cubist sensibility. His original compositions sit alongside beloved Monk standards like \"Blue Monk,\" \"Reflections,\" and \"Crepuscule with Nellie,\" with pieces such as \"Midnight Movement\" drifting into hypnotic, Philip Glass-like territory, demonstrating just how expansively Batiste interprets this material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabel: Verve Records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: 08\/14\/2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(184, 49, 47);\"\u003e Joco Records\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA1.
