A dedicatory poem woven with spiritual piano.
A powerful work that combines Tyner's passion and elegance.
McCoy Tyner's piano playing expresses both power and delicacy. This album, with the theme of "Dedication," unfolds a spiritual and dramatic performance. This is a monumental work of 1970s jazz, combining the spirituality inherited from Coltrane with his unique musical perspective.
