                        Round Midnight  -   Thelonious Monk
                 -----------------------------------------------


                                   arranged by Howard Wright
                                   Howard.Wright@ed.ac.uk



I worked out these chords by listening to two versions of the song
I've got - one with Monk playing solo at the piano, and another with
him and drums, bass, horns etc.


The two versions aren't exactly the same - but I've tried to find
the common ground between them to get a 'basic' arrangement.

You can play around with the chords, jazzing them up a bit, but the ones
I'll give at the start are the 'basics'.

Within the versions I've got, there's a lot of variation in the chords.
Especially Monk's playing at the piano - he seems to love adding flat
5ths to every other chord !!!

In fact, if you want to increase the 'Monk factor', instead of playing
straight 7ths, play 7-5 chords instead.

E.g in the intro chords instead of :  Am7-5   D7    Gm7-5   C7  etc

You could play :  Am7-5   D7-5    Gm7-5   C7-5
