Two classic performances from the Jazz on 3 archives, featuring pianist Andrew Hill, and saxophonists John Tchicai and Evan Parker.
Hill earned his status as a maverick, if sometimes underappreciated, innovator in the 60s but continued to surprise and delight until his death in 2007. This solo session from 2000 bears all the hallmarks of his style - an elusive blend of complex rhythmic and harmonic language, and elegant melody-making.
Tchicai's death late last year marked the passing of another of the avant-garde's greats. In this session from 2005 - recorded during a rare UK appearance - he and fellow free-jazzer Evan Parker play duets on various saxophones, at their virtuosic and intuitive best.
Presenter: Kevin Le Gendre
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Chris Elcombe.
