A six-time Grammy winner and two-time Oscar nominee, composer and trumpeter Terence Blanchard has been a consistent artistic force making powerful statements about American tragedies and highlighting sociocultural issues and racial injustices in his works.

For the collaboration Absence, a tribute to saxophonist Wayne Shorter, Blanchard worked with his internationally acclaimed band the E-Collective—which features young musical pioneers Charles Altura on guitar, Taylor Eigsti on piano and synthesizers, Oscar Seaton on drums, and David Ginyard on bass—and the boundary-pushing, Grammy-winning chamber group Turtle Island Quartet.
