Sean Grace

Sean Grace's playing has been described as "eloquent, supple and evocative ... sometimes gentle, at all times sophisticated, and always exuberant". His warm, sensuous tone and breathless technique redefine the flute in contemporary jazz and instrumental pop. Born on Long Island, New York to Irish immigrant parents and the youngest of eight, Grace demonstrated a unique musical talent at a young age. By the age of 7, he was already accomplished on both the Irish tin whistle and baroque recorder and was composing songs on piano and organ. He got his first flute at age 8, performed at Carnegie Hall at 11 and entered the Juilliard School pre-college program on scholarship at 12
