Featuring compositions by Stacy Garrop and Zachary James Watkins, a new
arrangement of Jackson's astonishing version of the Antonio Haskell composition
"God Shall Wipe All Tears Away," and archival audio of Jackson's voice, the album
illuminates Jackson's historic artistry and advocacy.
'Perhaps the most dazzling evidence of Garrop's virtuosity comes at the end of the
piece, when a few simple chords transform the interview sign-off into an unexpectedly
bittersweet life passage. You've heard radio interviewers close out a show countless
times; you've never heard that moment carry such a burden of tenderness and grace."
- San Francisco Chronicle on Glorious Mahalia
'Watkins's accompanying music, and the Kronos Quartet's performance of it, gave
voice to the wonder of witnessing that kind of genius, that in an explosion of vision
and creativity contributed more than a few teaspoons to making the change that we
hope is still to come." - New Haven Independent
"Peace Be Till" by Zachary James Watkins comissioned for Kronos Quartet by
Carnegie Hall and premiered January 2018
Features archival recordings of Mahalia Jackson, Studs Turkel, and other historical
figures
