National Youth Jazz Orchestra joins trumpeter Tom Stringer for a centenary tribute to Miles Davis at Toulouse Lautrec. Tickets on Mood.
A centenary celebration of Miles Davis. 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’ extraordinary career. At the heart of the programme are arrangements from the landmark 1957 album Birth of the Cool, whose innovative nonet sound helped usher in a new chapter in modern jazz. Alongside these classics, the ensemble will perform original arrangements by Stringer, drawing on music from different eras of Davis’ ever-evolving career.
