A summer evening for jazz lovers: Miles Davis in the heart of Fürth
With A hundred Miles of Jazz – The Miles Davis Project, great jazz history meets vibrant present on August 21, 2026, in the Rathaus courtyard of Fürth. Achim Goettert and the Faces dedicate themselves to the immortal music of Miles Davis and make a powerful statement for the 100th birthday of the exceptional artist.
When a century of jazz shines anew
Miles Davis embodies change, risk, and stylistic curiosity like few others. From bebop and cool jazz to hard bop, modal jazz, and jazz-rock fusion, he influenced generations of musicians. This project captures that range and translates it into a modern live concert experience full of excitement, colors, and improvisation.
FACES brings the energy of the original to the stage
Achim Goettert pays tribute to Davis with his band FACES, while simultaneously emphasizing the parallels to his own musical world. The lineup includes reeds, trombone, guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums, promising a dense orchestration where groove, sound space, and solo culture intersect. The result: an evening that not only quotes jazz but allows it to breathe in the here and now.
Live atmosphere in the Rathaus courtyard
The venue Rathaus Fürth provides a special ambiance outdoors as part of the Summer in the Rathaus 2026. The historic setting, the summery audience atmosphere, and the open acoustics of the courtyard create a framework where every motif and every improvised turn feels particularly immediate. For a program that relies on sonic nuances and dynamic arcs, a cohesive concert experience emerges here.
A concert between respect and new beginnings
This tribute project does not merely stand as a homage. It combines the authority of a jazz classic with the signature of an experienced live band that consciously makes parallels, influences, and stylistic breaks audible. Thus, an evening is created that appeals to both hardcore jazz fans and curious concertgoers.
