Les Trinitaires finds master composer Andrew Hill alone at the piano in a small
French club just 18 months before recording his well-regarded ensemble recording
Dusk. This is a stark, moody set, not the place to begin to explore Hill's
prickly work with its angular, elusive melodies. His solo presentation is stark
and ruminative. For those already engaged with his work, this offers a glimpse
of the skeletal foundations of compositions, especially "Dusk" and "15/8," which
would later appear on Dusk in full ensemble form.

These versions of the compositions are similar to seeing the sketches made for
an oil painting. The session also includes two newly minted compositions, "Metz"
and "Labyrinth," which were written during his stay at the club. Hill's
rendering of the two standards "What's New?" and "I'll Be Seeing You" with their
dark, dense altered chords and oddly loping left-hand figures give insights into
this important composer's sonic world.
