About Ascension
Ascension is a studio album by the jazz composer and musician John Coltrane. It was released through Impulse! Records in February 1966. It is considered a watershed in Coltrane's work, with the albums recorded before it being more conventional in structure and the albums recorded after it being looser, free jazz inspired works. In addition, it signaled Coltrane's interest in moving away from the quartet format. AllMusic called it "the single recording that placed John Coltrane firmly into the avant-garde". It was recorded at the Van Gelder Studio in June 1965.
