Horace Silver Flutes Group
May 24 @ 8:00 PM

Bill McBirnie / Jeremy Price - Flutes
Mark Eisenman - Piano
Jordan O' Connor - Bass
Richard Brisco - Drums

Toronto's Bill McBirnie and Vancouver's Jeremy Price bring their Two-Flute tribute to Horace Silver, Horace Silver Flutes, to The Rex for a rare performance on Sunday May 24, 2026 at 8 pm.  The flutes are supported by the "first call" rhythm section of Mark Eisenamann on piano, Jordan O'Connor on bass, and Richard Brisco on drums.

Horace Silver was known to incorporate flute on such recordings as The Jody Grind and Silver n Brass, but one is hard pressed in jazz to find two flutes (with rhythm section) recorded in Jazz.  There are two noteable precedents;  the Sam Most-Joe Farrell and Herbie Mann - Bobby Jasper tandems, and, of course, Flutology, the group of Frank Wess, Holly Hoffmann, and Ali Ryerson.

Canada's contribution to this jazz flute tandems celebrates the music of Horace Silver in all its univerally appealing glory !
