Recorded in May 1963,Ā Silverās SerenadeĀ was the last in a fantastic run of albums that pianistĀ Horace SilverĀ would make with the most celebrated line-up of his Quintet featuringĀ Blue MitchellĀ on trumpet,Ā Junior CookĀ on tenor saxophone,Ā Gene TaylorĀ on bass, andĀ Roy BrooksĀ on drums. The core of the band had been together since 1959 and recorded hard bop classics likeĀ Finger PoppināĀ andĀ Blowinā the Blues Away, with Brooks joining in 1960 onĀ Horace-Scope. The program onĀ Silverās SerenadeĀ consists of five Silver tunes that epitomize his exceptional compositional style: captivating melodies, sophisticated harmonies, and intricate rhythmic inventions with a soulful and unerring sense of swing at the core. From the relaxed groove of the opening title track to the hard-charging finale āNineteen Barsā the Quintet delivers their swan song with style.
