Miles Davis at 100: Celebrating a Jazz Legend 

Born on May 26, 1926, in Alton, Illinois, Miles Davis revolutionized jazz over five decades-from Birth of the Cool through Kind of Blue to his groundbreaking electric experiments. As one of the most innovative and influential figures in music history, Davis continually redefined the possibilities of sound and style. In 2026, the world marks his centennial. The Miles Davis Estate is leading a global campaign honoring his legacy across music, art, fashion, and cultural innovation. Join us for a celebration of Davis's profound influence as an artist, trendsetter, and boundary-breaker. Live performances of Davis's music will be presented by members of the LSC-Kingwood Jazz Ensemble and music faculty.
