2026 marks the centennial of two visionary architects of modern jazz: Miles Davis and John Coltrane. To celebrate their enduring legacy, two of today’s most innovative and influential bandleaders—Terence Blanchard and Ravi Coltrane—will join forces for a series of exceptional concerts.
Blanchard and Coltrane, both deeply connected to the spirit and lineage of these jazz icons, embody the very essence of creativity, futurism, transcendence, freedom—and the timeless "birth of cool" that defined Miles and Trane’s artistry.
This centennial tribute will not be a nostalgic reenactment, but a bold reimagining. Each concert will be a living, breathing experience, rooted in the legacy of Davis and Coltrane, yet fully anchored in the now. True to jazz’s essence, the performances will embrace improvisation, invention, and emotional intensity, ensuring that every evening is unique and unrepeatable.
A powerful celebration of heritage, transmission… and the future of jazz.
