Info
A centenary celebration of Miles Davis at Toulouse Lautrec.
2026 marks 100 years since the birth of Miles Davis, one of the most influential figures in the history of jazz.
To celebrate his centenary, NYJO (National Youth Jazz Orchestra) joins forces with emerging trumpeter Tom Stringer for a specially created nine-piece ensemble exploring music from across Davis’ career.
At the heart of the programme are arrangements from the 1957 album Birth of the Cool, whose innovative nonet sound helped usher in a new chapter in modern jazz. Alongside these pieces, the ensemble will perform original arrangements by Stringer, drawing on music from different eras of Davis’ evolving career.
From the sophisticated textures of his early cool jazz recordings to music from later chapters of his career, Miles Davis 100 presents an artist who continually challenged the boundaries of jazz and changed its direction.
