In the immediate years following her husband's death, Alice Coltrane underwent a challenging personal journey, finally emerging from emotional turmoil when she was introduced to guru Swami Satchidananda in the early 1970s. By 1972 she had changed her name to Turiyasangitananda, and left her secular life behind, moving to California. In 1975, she opened the Vedantic Centre.This spiritual awakening would define much of the rest of her life, her music notwithstanding. This show explores Alice's later recordings, which are deeply influenced by Hinduism and Eastern spirituality, featuring bhajan chants, and new age influence.
