"The best jazz album of 2003 was recorded in 1969 and then shelved, lost, forgotten, rediscovered and finally released 34 years later," says The New York Times. The reference is to Andrew Hill's mysterious Blue Note release Passing Ships, an album quickly hailed by jazz critics as a masterpiece. Now in 2006, the music from Andrew Hill's early octet comes alive on the stage of Merkin Concert Hall. Hill opens the concert with his trio. Hosted by Michael Cuscuna.
