Africa Brass Sessions, Volume 2 - Студийный альбом от John Coltrane. В альбом вошло 6 треков.

Africa/Brass is the eighth studio album by jazz musician John Coltrane, released in 1961 on Impulse! Records, catalogue A-6. The sixth release for the fledgling label and Coltrane's first for Impulse!, it features Coltrane's working quartet augmented by a larger ensemble to bring the total number of participating musicians to 21. Its big band sound, with the unusual instrumentation of French horns and euphonium, presented music very different from anything that had been associated with Coltrane to date.

Africa" in particular is quite memorable although Coltrane would not pursue any further recordings in this direction in the future, making this a change of pace in his discography.

Africa/Brass was Coltrane’s first Impulse release, in May 1961, and also his first date as a big-band leader. The saxophone titan started with his quartet of pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Reggie Workman, and drummer Elvin Jones, and he added other instruments including trumpet (played by Freddie Hubbard and Booker Little), euphonium (courtesy of Carl Bowman, Charles Greenlee, and Julian Priester), and piccolo (Garvin Bushell). The Coltrane-penned, Tyner/Eric Dolphy–arranged title track is the album’s centerpiece, with a masterful Jones solo inspired by African drumming.
