When the brilliant saxophonist John Coltrane died
in 1967, the core values of jazz music had long
drawn him into the spiritual world ('A Love
Supreme', 'Ascension', 'Meditations' etc.). His
widow and final pianist followed in his footsteps.
Alice Coltrane (1937?2007) sought after ?cosmic
sounds, higher dimensions, astral levels? ? she
had an important influence on the spiritualised,
esoteric music scene of the 1970s. Her first album
was only released after John Coltrane?s death,
but 'Eternity' was already her tenth. (In the same
year she founded a Hindu Vedantic Center in
California.) The album draws its power from highly
contrasted sound worlds. The size of the ensemble
ranges from an unaccompanied harp solo ('Wisdom
Eye') to a large orchestra with a big band of up
to 25 plus a 12-man string section. Alice
Coltrane?s main instrument is the electric
Wurlitzer organ, whose rasping sound conjures up
John Coltrane?s saxophone (especially in the
opening number 'Spiritual Eternal'). Mostly she
improvises modally, sinuously, or with meditative
ecstasy ? whether in the style of Latin rock ('Los
Caballos') or quite without a firm tempo
('Morning Worship' with a tamboura accompaniment).
Support comes from such renowned musicians as
Charlie Haden (bass), Jerome Richardson (saxophone
and flute), Hubert Laws (flute) and Ernie Watts
(cor anglais). In the number 'Om Supreme' Coltrane
switches to a gently swinging Fender Rhodes
electric piano, which is joined by a six-voice
vocal group. A surprising finale to the album is
an orchestral adaptation of an excerpt from
Stravinsky?s 'Le Sacre du printemps'. Here the
moments of dissonance and free jazz are far from
meditative contemplation.
