Abramorama has released the trailer and poster to Chasing Trane: The John Coltrane Documentary<\/strong>, which will hit theaters on April 14th in New York<\/strong> (IFC Center) and on April 21st in Los Angeles<\/strong> (The Landmark), with national rollout in top markets to follow.<\/p>\n

The words of John Coltrane are spoken by Academy Award-Winner Denzel Washington<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Written and directed by critically acclaimed documentary filmmaker John Scheinfeld <\/strong>(The U.S. vs. John Lennon and Who Is Harry Nilsson…?), Chasing Trane <\/strong>is the definitive documentary film about an outside-the-box thinker with extraordinary talent whose boundary-shattering music continues to impact and influence people around the world. This smart, passionate, thought-provoking and uplifting documentary is for anyone who appreciates the power of music to entertain, inspire and transform. The film is produced with the full participation of the Coltrane family and the support of the record labels that collectively own the Coltrane catalog. Set against the social, political and cultural landscape of the times, Chasing Trane brings John Coltrane to life as a fully dimensional being, inviting the audience to engage with Coltrane the man, Coltrane the artist.<\/p>\n
