In 2006 jazz musician Terence Blanchard saw his native New Orleans devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
‘When you’re hurt beyond anything you can imagine, I mean, it causes you to dig deep and try to find some answers’, he says.
His creative response was A Tale of God’s Will – an extraordinary, emotionally charged musical testament in the symphonic jazz tradition of greats like Duke Ellington.
