John Beasley 的 Unlimited Miles：Miles Davis 百年纪念

活动介绍

Under the direction of Grammy Award-winning pianist, composer, and arranger John Beasley, star‑studded musicians Marcus Strickland on saxophone, Sean Jones on trumpet, Ben Williams on bass, and Terreon Gully on drums delve into the visionary spirit and boundless creativity of Miles Davis. A musical shapeshifter with deep jazz roots, Beasley performed with Miles Davis and Freddie Hubbard in his twenties and has since collaborated with Dianne Reeves, Christian McBride, Chaka Khan, A.R. Rahman, Chucho Valdés, and Steely Dan, among others. “Beasley, the one-time keyboardist for Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis, reflects a variety of generational influences, incorporating the emphatic chordal clusters of Herbie Hancock, the rhythmic quirkiness of Monk and the lush intelligence of Art Tatum into a highly refined personal voice.” ( Los Angeles Times ) After the concert, enjoy a beverage and more music at the Postlude Performance in the Leslie & Anna Dan Galleria. A Centenary of Trane and Miles The Royal Conservatory celebrates 100 years of Miles Davis and John Coltrane with a powerhouse five‑concert series featuring today’s leading jazz innovators. From tributes by John Beasley and Ravi Coltrane to performances by Robi Botos, Branford Marsalis, Dianne Reeves, Orbert Davis, and Artemis, the 2026.27 concert season honours two towering legacies.
