This is a most amazing feat. The harp that Alice Coltrane is playing had clearly seen better days. If you look at the soundboard it looked like the wood was buckling. The harp column has dents and dings in it. She had to bring that harp to life. This concert took place during the time Poland was struggling to be liberated from Russian and it was very hard to get a good playing instrument.

Her mastery of the harp and her ability to transcend the instrument is wonderful.

if you you don't "understand" avant-garde or "free form" jazz you may have to train yourself to "hear" what this amazing woman is doing with this music/harp..... She is one of the great musicians of the last 100 years. Is she perfect? Does she always "nail it"? No, but when you go where she goes, you be working without a net.....

THAT´S AWFUL MELODY!!! KIND OF EVIL WASTED

lol she looks like a nut? because shes not a pale white skinned european in a suit? if your that xenophobic to where you cant even respect other cultures attire/fashion,hopefully you'll be even more displeased knowing the harp originated in kemet (egypt) in africa,by "black" people...

[zzindorf]

Um, she is perhaps literally the worst harpist ever. She looks like a nut.

[NIGHTSKYE1]

Don`t rate her much.
