Jazz great Thelonious Monk was famous for his unorthodox approach, both at the piano and in his personal style. Even now, on his 101st birth anniversary, listening to Monk can be habit-forming – as well as life-changing – according to pianist Jason Moran. (Produced in 2007)

A forthcoming book on Jason Moran, in conjunction with the exhibition Jason Moran at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, is due out October 23 and is available for pre-order.
