Miles(s)tones is a remarkable production in which both a young and older audience are introduced to jazz and one of its most fascinating figures. The performance irresistibly draws you into the sultry, sometimes haunting world of Miles, while remaining sufficiently light-hearted at the same time.

De Standaard ★★★★

Davis' adventurous, innovative approach to music is the production's starting point, leading you into a labyrinth of ever-changing spaces and moods. One moment, you may find yourself in the vibrant creativity of a recording studio or on stage as one of the musicians; the next moment, you're creating a live soundtrack to a movie or you will find yourself in the celebrated musician's painting studio.

In MILE(S)TONES, you will experience the endless, fantastic possibilities of improvised music through the compositions of Miles Davis, with Fulco Ottervanger and Simon Segers - members of the renowned Belgian jazz ensemble 'De Beren Gieren' - and trumpet player Bert Bernaerts as the ideal guides.
