Alice coltrane (25 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Alice Coltrane (1937 2007) was a composer, master of various musical instruments, improviser, spiritual leader, and wife of John Coltrane. Throughout her adult life, she worked within and combined a broad range of musical genres, including gospel, R&B, bebop, free jazz, Indian devotional song, and Western art music. She recorded more than twenty full-length albums for Impulse and Warner Bros. Her music speaks to her experiences as a child playing for church congregations in Detroit; the transcendent and mind-bending avant-garde improvisations she performed with her husband John Coltrane; and her religious pilgrimages to India. When Monument Eternal was originally published in 1977, Alice Coltrane was living in Southern California and had recently become a swami, building and nurturing an alternative spiritual community. In these pages, she says that the book is 'based upon the soul's realizations in Absolute Consciousness and its spiritual relationships with the Supreme One.' Monument Eternal offers deep insight into Coltrane's tremendous musical output, and shines a light on her transformation from Alice McLeod, Detroit church organist and bebopper, to sage thought leader Swami Turiyasangitananda. It also reflects the extraordinary fluidity of American religious customs in the mid and late twentieth century. Akashic's long-awaited reissue of Monument Eternal will include a new introduction from a notable writer. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Rashid Johnson, Cauleen Smith and others pay tribute to a truly extraordinary figure in 20th-century American jazzPublished with Hammer Museum. This volume unpacks the cultural legacy of musician, spiritual leader, wife and mother Alice Coltrane. Accompanying the eponymous exhibition at Los Angeles' Hammer Museum, the book takes its title from Coltrane's 1977 autobiography and devotional text, Monument Eternal, in which she reflected on her newfound spiritual beliefs and the path to healing and self-discovery. Coltrane was 'ahead of her time,' as her son, saxophonist Ravi Coltrane, says: she was 'one of the first people to move outside the mainstream, and certainly one of the first female, Black, American jazz musicians to record her own music in her own studio, and to release music on her own terms.'Alice Coltrane, Monument Eternal explores themes including spiritual transcendence, sonic innovation and architectural intimacy. The project juxtaposes works from 19 contemporary American artists with pieces of ephemera from Coltrane's archive--including handwritten sheet music, unreleased audio recordings and rarely seen footage--to honor her cultural output and practice.Alice Coltrane was born in Detroit in 1937 and took up music at an early age, beginning piano lessons at seven years old. In 1967 her husband, saxophonist John Coltrane, gifted her a harp, on which she went on to record seminal albums including Journey in Satchidananda and A Monastic Trio, making her one of the very few harpists in the history of jazz. Coltrane moved to Southern California in 1972 and founded the Sai Anantam ashram. She lived and worked in Los Angeles, where she died in 2007 at age 69.…

Audio-CD. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Das Jazzjahr 2024 beginnt mit einer aufregenden Entdeckung: einem bislang unveröffentlichten Konzertmitschnitt der legendären Alice Coltrane!1971 trat sie bei einer Wohltätigkeitsgala in der New Yorker Carnegie Hall auf. Was ursprünglich nur als Teil eines 'bunten Programmes' geplant war, endete als 80-minütiges Konzert vor begeistertem Publikum. Neben zwei transzendentalen Nummern von ihrem Album 'Journey In Satchidananda' wechselte die Künstlerin von der Harfe zum Klavier und spielte mit Musikern aus dem Orbit von John Coltrane (u.a. Pharoah Sanders und Archie Shepp) rhythmisch treibende, ekstatischen Versionen von dessen Kompositionen 'Africa' und 'Leo'.Nun werden diese Aufnahmen zum ersten Mal auf Doppel-Vinyl, Doppel-CD und digital veröffentlicht. Ein ausführliches Essay der Autorin Lauren Du Graf und informative Anmerkungen von Produzent Ed Michel runden die exquisit kuratierte Veröffentlichung ab.…
