There are few living musicians better qualified – by virtue of their chops and their history – to mount an effective tribute to pianist/composer Horace Silver than Louis Hayes. Reviewing his 2017 album Serenade For Horace in All About Jazz, Victor Schermer noted that “at 80, Hayes’ drumming is as superb and as youthful as ever…He brings together a group of seasoned, dedicated musicians to honor Silver, not by imitating or outdoing him, but by playing his music with great fidelity to Silver’s ideas and the hard bop period which he helped to innovate.” Born and raised in Detroit, in 1956 Louis Hayes moved to New York to replace Art Taylor in the Horace Silver Quintet; he recorded five Blue Note albums with Silver before joining Cannonball Adderley in 1959 for a six–year stint. The drummer’s legendary career included extended stays with the groups of Oscar Peterson and McCoy Tyner as well as co–leadership of the Cannonball Legacy Band (with saxophonist Vincent Herring). Don’t miss this special engagement by one of the great masters of the music, Louis Hayes!
