The Music of Horace Silver October 24, 2010

The SF-JAZZ Collective focuses on jazz master Horace Silver, who along with Art Blakey was a founding member of the trailblazing Jazz Messengers. In his performances and recordings, Silver combined Latin, gospel and funky soul with the harmonic sophistication of bebop — and he redefined what jazz could be in famous tunes like “Song for My Father,” “Doodlin'” and “Señor Blues.”

Join us for a post-performance reception with the artists in the Grand Pavilion.
This tour of SFJAZZ Collective is made possible by a grant from Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
