A spiritual jazz ritual that unleashes the cry of the soul
Trumpeter Hannibal Marvin Peterson recorded this album with his Sunrise Orchestra. It's spiritual jazz that deals with the return to Africa and cosmic themes.
Hannibal's trumpet soars through the high register, seemingly transcending technical limitations, erupting with intense emotion. The album is comprised of both live and studio recordings, and the live portion in particular combines percussion, chants, and the orchestra's free improvisation to create a ritualistic atmosphere. The energy of free jazz and the rhythms of African music blend together to transport the listener to an extraordinary sonic experience.
