Raphael Silverman Quartet

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for The Jazz Purveyor Presents Raphael Silverman Quartet! Raphael Silverman – Guitar Ilhan Saferali – Trumpet James Suter – Bass Daniel Dufour – Drums "Superb" – (JazzTimes) "The depth of Silverman's lyricism is rare in such a young player" – (New York City Jazz Record) At the age of 25, Raphael Silverman has already become one of the most compelling young voices on the jazz guitar. A protégé of the legendary guitarist Bobby Broom (NYC/Chicago), and graduate of Columbia University, he is a core member of the bands of two former Art Blakey Jazz Messengers, trumpeter Philip Harper and vocalist/pianist Johnny O'Neal. He stays busy backing music greats like Eric Alexander, Dan Nimmer, Peter Washington, and Billy Drummond, as well as cultural figures such as A$AP Rocky and Dave Chappelle. Leading his own trio across the landscape of New York City, he exercises a modern voice frequenting the Blue Note, Smalls, Mezzrow, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Minton's Playhouse, and other mainstay venues. A winner of awards from DownBeat Magazine and the Jarek Śmietana International Jazz Guitar Competition, his music honors the roots of this music while charting new & swinging directions. Presented by The Jazz Purveyor. Please Note: MONKS JAZZ IS NOW A FULL SERVICE BAR. As part of this transition, Monks Jazz is no longer a BYOB venue.
