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.
