Perhaps Monk's most romantic piece, "Ruby, My Dear" was first recorded at a 1947 Blue Note session. In the 1950s, Monk recorded it as a feature for an early mentor, saxophonist Coleman Hawkins. The classic recording of this ballad was made with John Coltrane.
My arrangement is based on two unaccompanied solo performances recorded in 1959 and 1965. |
