Transfiguration is a live album by Alice Coltrane. It was recorded in Los Angeles, California, in April 1978, and was released as a double album later that year by Warner Bros. On the album, Coltrane appears on piano and organ, and is joined by bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Roy Haynes. One track, "Prema," also includes an overdubbed string section. Transfiguration features five original compositions plus an extended version of John Coltrane's "Leo." It was her last jazz-oriented album, and last commercial release, until 2004's Translinear Light. Coltrane biographer Franya J. Berkman called it "her farewell to the jazz business."
