about
Whereas pianist Peter Madsen's acclaimed 2003 solo debut Sphere Essence: Another Side of Monk reinvented the Thelonious Monk catalog, Prevue of Tomorrow finds him revisiting a much wider swath of piano history in a program that includes Muhal Richard Abrams' "The Bird Song," Hasaan Ibn Ali's "Three-Four vs. Six-Eight Four-Four Ways," Andrew Hill's "Subterfuge," Herbie Nichols' "The Third World," Sun Ra's "A Portrait of the Living Sky," Cecil Taylor's "Rick Kick Shaw," Lennie Tristano's "Leave Me," Richard Twardzik's "The Girl From Greenland," Randy Weston's "Blues for Africa," and Mal Waldron's "Boo."
