The old Monk is dancing. While his band really gets into the groove, he leaves the piano to its own devices, stretches his stiff limbs and does a dance. Dances with no other aim than dancing itself, both cheerful and solitary. In 'An Old Monk', Josse De Pauw and the Kris Defoort Trio get into dance. It turned into a suite, a long ode to the desire to ‘raise the old bones higher than expected’ and to try doing a dance once again.
