An Evening of Soulful Jazz with the Hiruy Tirfe Quartet at Tribeca PAC

NEW YORK - EntSun -- Fresh off their first-place win at the prestigious 2024 DCJazzPrix International Band Competition, the Hiruy Tirfe Quartet brings their bold, expressive sound to the stage. Led by Philadelphia-born saxophonist, composer, and arranger Hiruy Tirfe, the group represents the next generation of contemporary jazz, combining soulful improvisation with technical mastery and global influence. The award-winning quartet includes Sandy Eldred on bass, Keith Phelps on piano, and Lionel Forrester on drums.

Tirfe's debut album 10,000 Hours has received international acclaim, resonating with audiences across the U.S., Europe, and South America. A graduate of the University of the Arts, Tirfe has become a sought-after sideman and soloist, sharing stages and studios with artists such as Patti LaBelle, The Roots, Bilal, Solange, Tye Tribbett, and Brandy.
