In that moment, I knew people needed to hear Turiya Sings in this context,\" Ravi shares. \"As her son, growing up and hearing her playing these songs on the very same Wurlitzer you hear on this recording, I recognize this choice maintains the purity and essence of Alice's musical and spiritual vision.

This album is not jazz – it is not improvised. It is intentional, devotional, and spiritual. This music, sung in Sanskrit, is spacious and large, Alice's voice has weight and power, her organ playing rock-solid, pulsing, a cauldron of musical influences you can hear from her life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRavi summarizes the musical importance of this release best: \"On this album, your ear will be turned toward the sound of the blues, to gospel, to the Black American church, often combined with the Carnatic singing style of southern India. You will hear beautiful harmonies influenced by Coltrane's Detroit\/Motown roots, her bebop roots, John Coltrane's impact, and her absorption of European classical music, particularly that of her favorite: Igor Stravinsky. Yet, at the same time, this is functional music. Its purpose is, with light and love, to praise the names of the Supreme. On this album, your heart and spirit will be turned toward divine inspiration and appreciation.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKirtan: Turiya Sings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e was mixed by \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSteve Genewick\u003c\/strong\u003e and mastered by \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKevin Reeves\u003c\/strong\u003e from original 24-track masters.
