“In 2002, pianist and composer Andrew Hill’s A Beautiful Day captured a landmark Birdland performance that also revealed a new facet of his own artistry. Now, A Beautiful Day, Revisited from Palmetto Records enhances this experience with a remixed and remastered edition that expands the recording’s depth and detail. Producer Matt Balitsaris adds previously unreleased material, including a second, unique rendition of the title track and a lengthened version of ’11/8′ featuring Hill’s introductions of each ensemble member. Hill’s band, with improvisers like Greg Tardy, Marty Ehrlich and Ron Horton, creates a rich, expressive soundscape that balances Hill’s compositional elegance with spontaneous, free-jazz momentum.” -Juno
