O’s Notes: Spanish born, Bay-Area pianist and composer Alex Conde serves up a fresh perspective on the work of the legendary Thelonious Monk. Jeff Chambers (b), Jon Arkin (d) and guest percussionist John Santos join him on his third outing as a leader, his first on Zoho. These arrangements are infused with Latin spirit while retaining the original character Conde has made them special with his signature. Descarga for Monk is one of the best interpretations of Thelonious’ music in recent times.
