Ascension (1966), published by Impulse!, is among the most radical and influential works of John Coltrane. Recorded in 1965 with an expanded ensemble of eleven musicians, this nearly 40-minute fresco alternates collective improvisations and solos in a free and intense energy. Initially controversial, it is now established as a major milestone of free jazz, presented here with its two complete takes. Edition mastered from analog tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl.
