rdf:langString Lord of Lords is an album by Alice Coltrane. It was recorded in California in July 1972, and was issued in 1973 by Impulse! Records, her final release for the label. On the album, Coltrane appears on piano, organ, harp, timpani, and percussion, and is joined by bassist Charlie Haden, drummer Ben Riley, and a string ensemble, which she conducts. Lord of Lords features three original compositions along with excerpts from Igor Stravinsky's The Firebird and an arrangement of the traditional piece "Going Home". It was the third in a series of three albums (following Universal Consciousness and World Galaxy) on which Coltrane appeared with an ensemble of strings. In the album liner notes, Coltrane stated that she received a "visitation" from Stravinsky, with whom she discussed music, and who presented her with "a small glass vial containing a clear, colorless liquid." She commented: "Since that time, it has been incumbent on me to proceed forthrightly into thegreat master Stravinsky's works." According to producer Ed Michel, Coltrane worked with the string players, who were top-rank classically-trained studio musicians, and "opened [them] up... so they could do absolutely astonishing things." He stated that, afterwards, "the string players couldn't believe that they had done what they had done." In 2011, Impulse! reissued the album, along with Universal Consciousness, as part of a compilation titled Universal Consciousness/Lord of Lords.
