(B) The lonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work that was rooted both
(C) Jazz pianist and composer The lonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted
(D) Jazz pianist and composer The lonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted
(E) Jazz pianist and composer The lonious Monk produced a body of work rooted both
Grammatical construction; Rhetorical
The subject of the sentence is The lonious Monk, and the sentence tells about two things that he did: produced and stood apart. The work he produced was rooted in the mainstream (stride piano) jazz tradition, yet at the same time, he deviated from this tradition. Q1 The use of a relative clause (who was a jazz pianist …) or an appositive (the jazz pianist …) introduces unnecessary wordiness and grammatical complexity. Since only one point is being made about Monk’s body of work, the appearance of the word both in the clause presenting the claim about Monk’s work is deceptive as well as grammatically incorrect.
A The relative clause introduces wordiness and confusion.Q2
B The appositive introduces wordiness and unnecessary grammatical complexity.Q3
C The sentence is a fragment because the main subject, The lonious Monk, has no verb.
D Correct. The sentence concisely identifies The lonious Monk and expresses the single
point about his work without unnecessary or misleading words.
E The appearance of both is misleading, since only one point is being made about where
Monk’s musical roots are located.
The correct answer is D.
