At 80 years old, legendary jazz saxophonist Pharoah Sanders delivered one of his most transcendent performances on Promises, a groundbreaking collaboration with electronic producer Floating Points and the London Symphony Orchestra. Released in 2021 on Luaka Bop, this album showcases Sanders playing his tenor sax with the conviction of a gospel preacher, creating music that is arrestingly beautiful from start to finish.
Promises represents an extraordinary fusion of jazz spirituality, orchestral grandeur, and electronic textures that unfolds across nine movements. The album features stunning moments like Alice Coltrane-inspired organ runs and soaring violin solos, building to brief but powerful climaxes before returning to meditative silence. This essential release captures a master musician at the peak of his artistic powers, making it a must-have for collectors and music lovers across all genres.
