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 October 11th & Monday October 12th at 8 pm. The flutes are supported by the "first call" rhythm section of Mark Eisenman 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.
