In March 2020, the shelter-in-place orders encouraged me to revisit my old projects, so I decided to finally complete this project which I had done circa 2013-2014 while in college.

Some technical notes on the transcription:
The piano part was transcribed as accurately as I could within the limitations (factors include the harmonics of the bass, drums, saxophone, other notes on the piano, mic distortion, etc.). Most of the chords ended up being decided based on what is the most likely chord I thought M. Tyner would play given what he's played in other situations.
I don't transcribe drums often, so please forgive my lack of idiomatic notation.
The timings of J. Coltrane's lines are very complex so the rhythms written are approximations for readability's sake.

The occasional chord symbols beneath the piano part are there to show that M. Tyner is superimposing a different chord over the original chord that would typically happen at that measure.

Articulation:
A lot of the articulation is left out on purpose because it would be much to notate given that you can listen to it. There are still discrepancies in the level of detail of the articulations. If you choose to play this, hopefully some of them will help.

Psalm Poem:
I included the poem words because I think they are an important part of the music.

Endings:
The piano arpeggiation isn't notated in the endings of the parts; generally the chord written there is arpeggiated up and down the keyboard.
