Jazz Reach: Miles Davis and the Blue Flame Incident | Valero Sensory Friendly Performance at The Tobin

  • When: Monday, November 18, 2024,  8:00 am
  • Location: Tobin Center for the Performing Arts: 100 Auditorium Cir, San Antonio, TX 78205
  • Cost: Free

Targeting students in grades 4-12, this exciting, all-new live multi-media program celebrates the groundbreaking achievements of the iconic trumpeter, bandleader and cultural provocateur, Miles Davis. The program traverses Davis' extensive career and features music from some of his most creatively fertile periods of his career, including his controversial divergence into electric music in the late 1960's.

Using both jazz history and 20th-century American history as a backdrop, Miles Davis and the Blue Flame Incident (which alludes to one of Davis' earliest childhood memories) will engage, inform and enlighten student audiences about one of the most compelling, infinitely creative and trailblazing artists the world has ever known.

Performance will be approximately 1 hour long
Best for grades 2-5, MS, HS
