Ravi Coltrane Centennial Celebration
Tuesday, October 13, 2026 · 12:00 PM · Village Vanguard, Manhattan
The Read
A centennial at the Vanguard is not an arbitrary pairing: John Coltrane recorded there in 1961 and the live albums are part of the canon. Ravi has spent a career declining to imitate him, which makes the tribute more interesting than a repertory set would be.
The Venue
Village Vanguard
178 Seventh Ave S
A triangular West Village basement holds the Village Vanguard, where the audience's job is simple: listen while the band works.

Before
Faicco's Italian SpecialtiesA butcher counter and sandwich operation that has been on Bleecker Street since the start of the last century. The thing to order is the Italian special hero or a rice ball from the fried case by the register. It is takeout, so plan to eat it on a bench rather than at a table.

After
Kettle of FishA dark bar on Christopher Street with darts and an old Ms. Pac-Man cabinet, plus couches people sit on for hours. It is the Green Bay Packers bar in New York, which on a Sunday in autumn means the place is full of Wisconsin accents by noon. The rest of the week it is quiet and cheap.
