abstract
  • Misterioso is a live album by American jazz ensemble the Thelonious Monk Quartet, released in 1959 by Riverside Records. Pianist and composer Thelonious Monk recorded the album on August 7, 1958, at the Five Spot Café in New York City with his new quartet, which featured drummer Roy Haynes, bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin. It was his first successful live recording. The album and its title track were titled as a reference to Monk's reputation at the time as an enigmatic, challenging musician. The album's cover art appropriates Giorgio de Chirico's 1915 painting The Seer. According to producer Orrin Keepnews, Monk played piano more vividly than on his studio recordings in response to the venue's enthusiastic crowd. Misterioso features four of his earlier compositions, which Monk reworked live. In contemporary reviews of the album, music critics complimented Monk's performance, but were ambivalent towards Griffin, whose playing they felt was out of place with the quartet. Misterioso was remastered and reissued in 1989 and 2012 by Original Jazz Classics. Since its initial reception, the album has received retrospective acclaim from critics, who viewed Griffin's playing as a highlight.
