About this clip:
SFJAZZ Resident Artistic Director Ravi Coltrane and his all-star group performs the immortal 1969 Pharoah Sanders composition “The Creator Has a Master Plan” during his concert on March 29, 2024 — part of the 2023-24 Season and broadcast on Fridays Live.

--

Coltrane’s powerful acoustic quartet with pianist David Virelles, bassist Dezron Douglas, and drummer Johnathan Blake honors the life and legacy of the saxophonist’s lifelong friend, mentor, and collaborator Pharoah Sanders who passed away in 2022. Joining them for this night of spiritual journeys and sonic exploration are some very special guests, including tenor master Joe Lovano, vocalist Richard Howell, and Sanders’ son, multi-instrumentalist Tomoki Sanders.

ABOUT RAVI COLTRANE:
An artist whose career occupies a singular niche in modern jazz, Ravi Coltrane has established a sound and concept that stand undeniably on their own, extending far beyond the shadow of his iconic name. Early experience in John Coltrane Quartet drummer Elvin Jones’ Jazz Machine and maverick saxophonist Steve Coleman’s M-Base movement helped build Coltrane’s expansive aesthetic, leading to a procession of increasingly audacious recordings as a leader and collaboration with artists ranging from his mother, harpist and pianist Alice Coltrane, and cousin, iconoclastic producer Flying Lotus, to pianist Chick Corea, trumpeter Terence Blanchard, and drummer Jack DeJohnette. In 2014, Coltrane curated a week of SFJAZZ performances celebrating the 50th anniversary of the recording of his father’s masterpiece “A Love Supreme.”
