Soaring is an album by trumpeter Don Ellis recorded in 1973 and released on the MPS label. The album features Hank Levy's composition which provided the title for, and was featured in, the 2014 film Whiplash.
Scott Yanow of Allmusic called it an "underrated set ...well worth searching for". On Jazz History Online, Michael Verity observed "By 1973, when he recorded Soaring, a 10-cut musical haiku, all of his interests were converging into a style that was bold, intensely rhythmic and perfectly calibrated sound for the big screen. (It should be no surprise he was scoring The French Connection at same time he was working on this project)."
