The John Coltrane Statue is located in Downtown High Point, NC at the intersection of S. Hamilton…read moreSt. and Commerce Ave (John Coltrane Way) Parking is available nearby at City Hall. I didn't see that with the construction and detours, so I parked in a tow-away zone right in front of the eight-foot monument. No, I didn't get a ticket, but I didn't stay as long as I would have liked either. The statue is 8 feet high, made of bronze and created by Thomas Jay Warren. The statute depicts Coltrane with his tenor saxophone. It was dedicated on September 20th, 2006, on what would have been Coltrane's 80th birthday. I liked that there was a storyboard about John Coltrane and his career to read, and that there was a nearby historical marker. "My music is the spiritual expression of what I am ~ my faith, my knowledge, my being." Coltrane was born in Hamlet, NC, but moved to High Point as an infant and grew up living with his extended family. Coltrane grew up with music; his father played the ukulele, and his mother was a trained singer and pianist. Coltrane first started playing the clarinet and alto horn. Then, at William Penn High School, he joined the band and started playing the saxophone. Coltrane found solace in music after the deaths of his father, grandfather and uncle. Coltrane moved to Philadelphia and joined the Navy. He collaborated with other legends like Miles Davis and Thelonious Monk. He overcame his addiction to drugs and alcohol. His "spiritual awakening" led him to more spiritual music. Coltrane's career was cut short as his untimely death from liver cancer took him at age 40. But he left a lasting legacy with albums such as Blue Train, Giant Steps and A Love Supreme. .
