Experience an extraordinary live performance of the music of Gregg Hill, captured during the 42nd edition of JazzAscona in Ascona, Ticino, Switzerland.
 
Live at JazzAscona brings together an exceptional ensemble of New Orleans musicians led by drummer Adonis Rose, with vocalist Phillip Manuel, arranger and alto saxophonist Rex Gregory, trumpeter Ashlin Parker, tenor saxophonist Miles Berry, pianist Seth Finch, and bassist Max Moran.
 
Four Gregg Hill compositions are joined by Keith Jarrett’s “Bop Be” and Billy Strayhorn’s timeless “Lush Life,” creating a program that celebrates contemporary New Orleans jazz while honoring the broader jazz tradition.
