Marcus Miller opens 33rd Istanbul Jazz Festival
The 33rd Istanbul Jazz Festival opened with a performance by bassist, composer and producer Marcus Miller as part of his “We Want Miles! The Reunion Tour 2026.”
Miller was joined on stage by guitarist Mike Stern, saxophonist Bill Evans, percussionist Mino Cinelu, trumpeter Russell Gunn, keyboardist Brett Williams and drummer Anwar Marshall.
The concert featured selections from the late trumpeter and composer Miles Davis’ later repertoire, with a particular focus on his Grammy-winning 1981 live album “We Want Miles.”
The concert also reunited several musicians who had previously performed with Davis, including Bill Evans, Mike Stern and Mino Cinelu.
