In this spectacular world premiere event, Ravi Coltrane and his band explore the groundbreaking, mystical, and spiritual music of his parents, John and Alice Coltrane.
Ravi Coltrane is a critically acclaimed Grammy™ nominated saxophonist, bandleader, and composer. Over the course of a twenty plus year career, Mr. Coltrane has worked as a sideman to many, recorded noteworthy albums for himself and others, and founded the prominent independent record label, RKM.
Born in Long Island, the second son of John Coltrane and Alice Coltrane, Ravi was named after Indian sitar legend Ravi Shankar. He was raised in Los Angeles where his family moved after his father’s death in 1967. His mother, Alice Coltrane, was a significant influence on Ravi and it was he who encouraged Alice to return to performance and the recording studio after a long absence. Subsequently, Ravi produced and played on Alice Coltrane’s powerful, Translinear Light, which was released in 2004.
