Beyond the Wall (album)

Beyond the Wall is the twelfth studio album by Kenny Garrett released in August 2006 from Nonesuch Records. Among the musicians are legendary tenor saxophonist Pharoah Sanders, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, pianist Mulgrew Miller and drummer Brian Blade.

For Garrett, Beyond the Wall is a continuation of his fascination with and study of Asian cultures and philosophies. On Beyond the Wall Garrett mixed Chinese instrumentation with Western strings, creating an amalgam of musical styles, which hang together effortlessly. Some of the tracks on Beyond the Wall relate specifically to his travels.
