Miles Davis Estate and Langham Hospitality Group Collaborate to Celebrate Davis’ Music and Legacy

The Voice Of Miles: A Symphonic Cinematic Celebration to Make Los Angeles Debut at The Langham Huntington, Pasadena on Nov 1

Rare Exhibit of Original Davis Paintings To Be Displayed

From Nov 1st-30th

October 13, 2026- The Miles Davis Estate and Langham Hospitality Group (LHG) have detailed a creative new collaboration to honor Davis' music and legacy in celebration of his centennial. Highlights of this first-of-its-kind partnership include the Los Angeles debut of The Voice Of Miles: A Symphonic Cinematic Celebration immersive live orchestral event at The Langham Huntington, Pasadena , on November 1. Coinciding with The Voice of Miles, the historic Pasadena landmark will also host a rare gallery exhibit of original Miles Davis paintings that will be displayed for the entire month of November, curated by Larry Earl. Future Miles Davis events will be announced at additional LHG properties across North America, and marks the latest chapter in what has been a remarkable year celebrating Miles 100.

The Voice of Miles: A Symphonic Cinematic Celebration transforms the acclaimed documentary Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool into an immersive, live orchestral event. Featuring Miles' original, isolated live trumpet performances alongside new orchestrations, the program invites audiences to experience the sound and story of a singular genius who reshaped jazz-and modern music-through fearless reinvention. Film excerpts and live performance interlock in real time, creating a cinematic concert experience that places Miles himself-heard and seen in performance-at the center of a newly expanded symphonic landscape, as his unmistakable trumpet voice is surrounded by the power and sweep of a full orchestral sound. The production made its debut at Brooklyn's National Sawdust in May, and returned to New York City as part of Central Park Summerstage's 2026 programming. The show is produced by Park Avenue Artists.

The Voice of Miles: A Symphonic Cinematic Celebration on November 1 will feature a 13-piece orchestra, situated in The Langham Huntington, Pasadena's Huntington Ballroom. Built in 1914, The Langham Huntington, Pasadena sits on 17 acres of gardens overlooking the San Gabriel Valley. The concert will take place from 5-7:30PM.

Exhibit of Miles Davis' original artwork

Later in his career, Davis devoted much of his time and creative energy to the visual arts, from sketches and drawing to painting. The Langham Huntington, Pasadena will host a rare opportunity to see a curated selection of original paintings, opening on November 1 and continuing until the end of the month. Davis' artwork has been shown in major exhibitions in Paris, London and beyond, but less frequently on display to the public over the past decade. The Miles Davis Estate is working with curator and historian Larry Earl on the exhibit.

Eaton DC, Washington D.C.

On October 22, Eaton DC, an LHG hotel, will host an opportunity for fans to experience the Emmy-winning Miles Davis: Birth of the Cool documentary like never before. Presented by Park Avenue Artists, this special showing airs the documentary in its entirety, immediately followed by a conversation with special guests including Davis' son Erin Davis, and a playback of an excerpt from The Voice of Miles: A Symphonic Cinematic Celebration. Produced in partnership with the D.C. Jazz Festival.

The partnership with LHG marks the latest chapter in Miles Davis 100, the yearlong centennial celebration honoring Davis' enduring impact across music, art, fashion, film and culture. Among the projects still to come is Miles & Juliette, the forthcoming feature film starring Damson Idris as Miles Davis and Anamaria Vartolomei as Juliette Gréco, directed by Bill Pohlad and produced by Mick Jagger and Victoria Pearman, with the Miles Davis Estate executive producing. Throughout 2026, the centennial has also inspired collaborations with Off-White, Breitling, Lexus and Amazon Music, while Davis' life and legacy have been celebrated by The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, GQ, Track Star and more. The year has also brought new archival releases from Sony/Legacy, Craft/Concord, Blue Note and Rhino, as well as a new Centennial Edition of Miles: The Autobiography featuring a foreword by Nas. The celebration will continue into 2027, with additional projects and events still to be announced.

The Pasadena and DC events are supported by independent French high-quality streaming and download platform Qobuz, with further collaborations between LHG and Qobuz to be announced.

About Miles Davis

Miles Davis (1926-1991) fundamentally reshaped modern music across five decades of relentless reinvention. From pioneering bebop and cool jazz to defining hard bop, modal improvisation, and electric fusion, Davis treated each genre breakthrough as a starting point rather than a destination. His discography reads like a timeline of jazz's evolution: Birth of the Cool, Kind of Blue (the best-selling jazz album of all time), Sketches of Spain, In a Silent Way, Bitches Brew, and dozens more albums that continue to define both the essence and the outer limits of improvised music.

Davis's genius extended beyond composition and performance. His studio innovations with producer Teo Macero established templates for modern music production. His ensembles functioned as talent accelerators, launching the careers of John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, and countless others who would themselves become legends. His influence spans generations: he remains one of the most sampled artists in hip-hop, with his recordings serving as foundations for Kendrick Lamar, Madlib, and A Tribe Called Quest.

His accolades include eight Grammy Awards, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, eleven recordings in the Grammy Hall of Fame, induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, stars on both the Hollywood and St. Louis Walks of Fame, and a Congressional resolution honoring Kind of Blue's 50th anniversary in 2009.

Beyond music, Davis established himself as a style icon (#1 on GQ's Most Stylish Musicians of All Time), visual artist (paintings exhibited across four continents), and symbol of artistic independence.
