ABOUT THE SFJAZZ HIGH SCHOOL ALL-STARS
A pre-professional training program for current Bay Area high school–age jazz musicians, the All-Stars rehearse and perform throughout the school year at the SFJAZZ Center, receive mentorship and clinics with leading jazz professionals, record a professional studio album, compose and arrange original music in addition to studying a wide range of repertoire, and appear at prestigious music festivals and competitions.
Resolution, composed by John Coltrane and arranged by Bob Mintzer, is featured here with vocalists Joshua Prabhakar and Madison Lazark, and a tenor saxophone solo by Javier Gutierrez. First released in 1965 as part of Coltrane’s landmark suite A Love Supreme, “Resolution” reflects a strong sense of purpose and forward motion, brought to life here with clarity, precision, and feeling by these outstanding young musicians.
