The study was carried out by analysis of Thelonious Monk's improvisations focusing on identifying his use of harmonically specific devices and marking them with specially designed symbols. The analyzed improvisations were transcribed from a limited number of Monk's selected recordings, yet representing a variety in authorships, period, structural form, types of harmonic progression, and band personnel. The study identifies the methods that Monk used Harmonic Specificity to address harmonic progressions and the uniqueness of the resulting harmonic sound is defined by non-standard application of standard harmonic devices. These findings are potentially applicable in composing, arranging, or improvisingxiv, 133 leavesapplication/pdfengผลงานนี้เป็นลิขสิทธิ์ของมหาวิทยาลัยมหิดล ขอสงวนไว้สำหรับเพื่อการศึกษาเท่านั้น ต้องอ้างอิงแหล่งที่มา ห้ามดัดแปลงเนื้อหา และห้ามนำไปใช้เพื่อการค้าJazz -- ImprovisationImprovisation (Music)Harmonic specificity in Thelonious Monk's improvisationsMaster ThesisMahidol University
