Miles @100

1 upcoming performance in New York

At NJPAC, *Miles @100* frames Miles Davis as a working musician whose centennial still organizes how jazz is heard in New York and beyond. Trumpeter Jon Faddis leads a “Faddis & Friends” lineup, bringing a background shaped by close study of Dizzy Gillespie and training in the Stan Kenton tradition, where big-band discipline meets small-group risk. The program treats Davis less as a monument than as a set of problems to solve in sound. The earned impression is one of precision that keeps the material from turning purely commemorative.
