Illuminations

Carlos Santana

A transcendental collaboration where searing electric guitar meets Alice Coltrane's divine harp and lush orchestral strings. Deeply spiritual, patient, and cosmic.

How does Illuminations sound next to the rest of Carlos Santana's catalogue?

Harp+4.0σ

The instrumentation foregrounds harp far more than the catalogue usually does.
