What should I know about Alice Coltrane?
Alice Coltrane wasn't just a pianist who married a legend; she was a sonic architect who reshaped the very canvas of music. Rising from the fertile ground of John Coltrane's revolutionary jazz, she forged her own path paved with shimmering harp glissandos, celestial organ drones, and cascading piano runs all bathed in the vibrant hues of spiritual inquiry. Her music, once nestled within the realm of "spiritual jazz," transcended labels, morphing into a cosmic tapestry where Indian chants intertwined with devotional hymns, avant-garde experimentation danced with gospel's rhythmic soul. Albums like "Journey in Satchidananda" and "Lord of Lords" were portals to inner landscapes, testaments to her spiritual journey that resonated with seekers both inside and outside the jazz world.
