Trane

John Coltrane would have been 80 years old today. Through music, he was one of the greatest spiritual seekers of the 20th century. And even today, there is still a healing, spiritual sound resounding in his music that can lift listeners to higher ground.

My hard-core fans :-) would know about these already, but for those who don't, here are two articles I wrote about Trane from a couple of years ago:

A Sax Divine (Utne Reader)
Spiritual Improvision (Sojourners)
